	Beethoven was a strong believer in preserving authoritative editions of his music. The original Breitkopf & Härtel edition of his works was published in 1862-65. It was one of several collected editions the firm published in that period for composers who, having died over the preceding century, still had a robust following in Germany. Since research into Beethoven's life and music continues vigorously to the present day, it is inevitable that reasons for publishing new editions accrue over time. The [http://www.beethoven-haus-bonn.de/sixcms/detail.php?id=38893&template=&_mid=39059 Beethoven-Archiv] in Bonn, the city of Beethoven's birth, has been preparing a new critical edition (by G.

	In 1807 Lobkowitz assumed the direction of productions at the Hoftheater (the court theater). Johann Friedrich Reichhart wrote of the count in 1808/09 that "he lived for music day and night." Under his direction the number of musicians rose steadily. At one point he had in his employ 43 instrumentalists and 36 singers. The payroll became unmanageable. To underwrite his costs Lobkowitz recruited a number of noblemen to the cause of his musical enterprises. Among them were Count [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsky Kinsky] and Archduke Rudolf, the emperor's son. By 1814, however, Lobkowitz himself was almost bankrupt. He fled the city. The <i>Kapelle</i> was dissolved in 1814, but the Lobkowitz Palace was remembered as the home of an "Academy of Music." The count died in 1816.
