Georg Kopprasch (the 'C' on p.3 of this edition is a misprint) was the son of Wilhelm, a composer and bassoonist in the orchestra of the princely court at Dessau in north Germany. Georg first appears as a horn-player in the band of the 'Prussian Regiment', but in 1824 he was listed as second (lower) horn in the orchestra of the Royal Theatre in Berlin. His 60 Studies were probably the first to be written for valved horn and were published in 1832/3 since when they have been transcribed for trumpet, trombone, tuba and bassoon.

This edition for bassoon was prepared by Simon Kovar (1890-1970) who emigrated to the USA from Russian controlled Lithuania in 1922. He joined the New York Philharmonic Orchestra as second bassoon and built a reputation as an outstanding teacher of his instrument at a number of prestigious establishments including the Juilliard School of Music. His edition of the Kopprasch studies has a copyright date of 1956.
