  Urtext edition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An urtext edition of a work of classical music is a printed version intended to reproduce the original intention of the composer as exactly as possible, without any added or changed material.
The sources for an urtext edition include the autograph (that is, the manuscript produced in the composer's hand), hand copies made by the composer's students and assistants, the first published edition, and other early editions.
A compromise between urtext and interpretive editing is an edition in which the editor's additions are typographically distinguished (usually by size or greyscale) from the composer's own markings.

 Pop Occulture: Definition of Urtext   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
We are used to an ‘urtext’ model of literature: there is one original and ideal model for the story somewhere, recorded in words or whatever.
The term "Urtext" is first found in the writings of Herder and Goethe, where it is used to describe the original version of a text such as a novel that was later translated into other languages.

 Urtext v2.0 - There's just nothing like an original.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
The word urtext basically means an original and unedited version of something, usually a musical something.
To professional classical musicians, urtext editions are prized above those that have been worked over by an editor (even a good one,) because they allow us to see exactly what the composer wrote - nothing more, nothing less.
First, it could just be considered a bad joke, since there can hardly be a revised version of an urtext, as I've defined it.

Helen then retyped the Urtext and, according to Ken Wapnick, “edited as she went along.”4 This, then, effectively produced a new version, which I will call simply, “the second draft.” Some suspect that the Urtext currently available on the Internet is actually a combination of portions of the Urtext and portions of the second draft.
For instance, the Urtext says, “The Holy Spirit is the Bringer of Revelations, not miracles.”20 In contrast, the later Course consistently characterizes the Holy Spirit as “the Bringer of all miracles.”21 For this reason, the statement that the Holy Spirit is not the Bringer of miracles was quite rightfully deleted in the HLC.
In the early Urtext, the world is sometimes characterized as being made by the Divine in response to the separation, as a teaching device to lead us out of the separation.
