Breitkopf & Härtel plans to publish a volume of Jean Sibelius’ works for brass septet in mid-November 2026 as part of its complete Sibelius edition, according to the sheet music publisher.
Edited by Janne Kivistö, the 140-page volume belongs to the series devoted to works for string and wind orchestra. Breitkopf lists accompanying text in English and German and a critical report in English.
The publisher says the scores draw largely on Sibelius’ manuscripts and copies. The volume includes two transcriptions of score drafts alongside completed works.
Among the material is a 1918 draft of Partiolaisten marssi for brass septet and percussion, which the publisher says is receiving its first publication in the volume.
Breitkopf also discusses the music’s connections to Finnish brass-band activity and lists the march Tiera among the works. The publisher gives mid-November as the expected publication period without specifying a day.
