About us

At Felix Editions, we believe in the power of forgotten music to inspire new generations. We are a publishing house specialized in reissuing piano music by forgotten 19th-century composers. With our unique collection, we aim to broaden the canon of Western classical music and shed new light on overlooked musical masters.

Our History

Felix Editions was founded in 2022 out of dissatisfaction with the limited availability of less performed repertoire. Much of this music is only accessible as copies of old editions, which are often poorly legible or accurate. Hence, we decided to produce high-quality, modern editions.

Initially, we focused on just six countries, but since the reopening of our store in 2024, we have been delivering worldwide, except for conflict zones.

Mission and Vision

Our mission is simple: to reintroduce forgotten composers to musicians and music enthusiasts worldwide. We focus on neglected repertoire that may not readily find a platform with other Urtext publishers. While this is a niche market, we endeavor to apply modern methods of Urtext publishing to unfamiliar repertoire. At times, this proves challenging due to limited sources available, such as with Edward Wolff or Eduard de Hartog.

Our values:

  • Readable Formatting: Clear formatting that is a pleasure to read and hold.
  • Exquisite Paper Quality: Our editions are printed on the highest quality paper.
  • Background Information: Each publication includes valuable background information.
  • Critical Commentary: Comprehensive critical commentary to support performance practice.

In the long term, we aim to develop a comprehensive catalog of repertoire deserving to be played alongside more familiar works.

Our Collection

Our collection includes works by composers such as Clara Schumann, Adolf von Henselt, Ludwig Schuncke, Edward Wolff, Carl Loewe, Joseph Wölfl, Henri Litolff, and Van den Sigtenhorst Meyer. We have a specific interest in sonatas and other larger compositions. Additionally, we are curating a collection of encores, which we will publish at a later date.

Examples of beloved works in our collection:

  • The Ballade, Op. 31 by Adolf von Henselt: a piece deserving regular performance.
  • 4 Pièces Caractéristiques, Op. 5 by Clara Schumann: a progressive cyclic composition that would resonate well with any audience.
