We are particularly proud of our engraving. In fact we make the claim that Henle Urtext offers the finest and best engraving in the world, a claim that is supported by many musicians:
We are, of course, delighted to receive so much praise because we do indeed invest a great deal in our music engraving. The result is without equal. Only a few selected music engravers are allowed to work for us. Up to 1999, most of the Urtext editions in our programme were engraved by hand, using traditional metal plate engraving techniques.
If you are interested in learning more about the fascinating, but sadly no longer practised, art of metal plate engraving, please watch our informative films on this topic:
Film 1
