Vienna Percussion Editions

Percussion Music

from performer to performer

Editions from Practice

Vienna Percussion Editions publishes contemporary percussion music rooted in performance practice, with a particular focus on detailed transcriptions of recorded jazz performances.
The catalogue brings together three core areas: highly nuanced transcriptions, jazz-influenced original works, and arrangements of traditional Viennese repertoire for percussion ensemble.

Clarity, precision, and musical usability are central to the editorial approach — creating scores that communicate musical intention transparently and support performers in making informed artistic decisions.

Ensemble works are conceived with practical performance contexts in mind: efficient instrumentation, flexible scoring, and formats that enable performances with minimal logistical effort — from professional ensembles to educational settings.

Editions and Availability

Digital editions are available directly through the Vienna Percussion Editions website.
