Universal Edition

Universal Edition (also Universal Edition AG / Aktiengesellschaft and Universal Edition Wien) is a classical music publishing company. Founded in 1901 in Vienna, the company also has branches in London and New York. Sometimes just "Universal" may appear as publisher for a classical work. This short for Universal Edition and should be entered as such. But, don't confuse with Universal or Universal Music Publishing. Universal Edition is a classical publisher active since 1901. The Universal music group is active since 1996. When "Universal" appears as publisher for a classical work, especially when written before 1996, this is the correct publisher to enter.
