Franz Schubert (1797–1828): New Edition of the Complete Works (Franz Schubert (1797–1828): Neue Ausgabe sämtlicher Werke), commonly known as the New Schubert Edition (NSE), or, in German: Neue Schubert-Ausgabe (NSA), is a complete edition of Franz Schubert's works, which started in 1956 and is scheduled to conclude in 2027.^[1][2][3] The projected number of volumes of the publication, which includes score editions, critical reports and supplements, is 177, of which, as of 2020^[update], 150 have been realised.^[1][4][5][6]

The International Schubert Society, initiated in 1963 for this purpose, is the driving force behind the edition.^[4][5][7] Its score and supplement volumes are published by Bärenreiter.^[1][4][5] The NSE is a successor to Franz Schubert's Werke: Kritisch durchgesehene Gesammtausgabe: this old collected edition (in German: Alte Gesamt-Ausgabe, AGA), was published by Breitkopf & Härtel in the late 19th century, and the successor is sometimes referred to as new collected edition, in German: Neue Gesamt-Ausgabe (NGA).^[7][8][9]

Eusebius Mandyczewski's critical report of the last volume of the Alte Gesamt-Ausgabe was published in 1897, a century after Schubert's birth. The old collected edition has a limited critical apparatus, and soon after its completion previously unknown works by Schubert were discovered. From the 1950s ideas about a new and updated collected edition of Schubert's works began to emerge. The International Schubert Society was founded in 1963, 135 years after the composer's death, with the sole purpose of supporting such endeavour. Walter Gerstenberg was appointed as head of the NSE's editorial board.^[7][10]

Otto Erich Deutsch, who had published the Schubert Thematic Catalogue, that is the Deutsch Catalogue, in 1951, became honorary president of the editorial board.^[7][11] In 1964, Bärenreiter published a new German version of Deutsch's Schubert: Die Dokumente seines Lebens (Schubert: A Documentary Biography) as one of the Supplement volumes of the NSE.^{[7][12][13][14][15]} In 1965, the editorial board became fully operational, with members such as Walther Dürr, Arnold Feil and Christa Landon [de].^[7] Offices for the edition were set up in Tübingen and Vienna.^[7][16][17] The first score volume was published in 1967.^{[4][5][7][18]}

Among the sponsors of the NSE project are the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the Union of German Academies of Sciences and Humanities and its member organization Academy of Sciences and Literature of Mainz (AdW Mainz).^[7][19] In 1969 Feil and Dürr published an article about some of the challenges of the project in the Österreichische Musikzeitschrift.^[20] A 1973 article by Dürr, Feil and Landon, in Die Musikforschung, explains the project's approach to the publication of critical reports.^[21]

The New Schubert Edition was planned with 83 main volumes (numerische Bände, lit. 'numerical volumes') in eight series: the first seven series containing 73 volumes with music scores (Notenbände), each complemented with a critical report (Kritischer Bericht, KB), and the last series containing ten supplementing volumes (Supplementbände).^{[1][4][6][22]} The realized number of volumes (reale Bände, lit. 'real volumes') exceeds the number of initially planned volumes: some volumes were split in sub-volumes (Teilbände, lit. 'partial volumes'), and some supplemental volumes were added to series I–VII.^{[1][4][6][22]}

Bärenreiter-Verlag publishes the scores and supplements, and the critical reports are published by the International Schubert Society.^[4] Counted in reale Bände, 76 of the projected 101 score and supplement volumes had materialised by the end of 2010, as had 47 of the critical reports.^[4] By late March 2015, the number of completed main volumes was 65 (out of 83), and the NSE project was scheduled to finish in 2027.^[23] By the end of 2015, 84 main volumes were planned (of which 68 were complete), and 84 score and supplement volumes, together with 61 critical reports, were published.^[5]

Graham Johnson, having become acquainted with the New Schubert Edition from around 1975, describes the way Dürr presented the Lieder in the fourth series as "rethinking Schubert".^[244] The Schubertiade Hohenems [de] of 2015 was a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the start of the NSE.^[10] The event, held from the first to the third of May, attracted some press attention for the NSE.^{[23][245][246][247]} On the occasion, the Deutsche Schubert-Gesellschaft congratulated the NSE and the International Schubert Society.^[248] In 2020, Thomas Seedorf wrote an article about the NSE in the yearbook of the Gesellschaft für Musikgeschichte in Baden-Württemberg [de].^[8]
