Deutsch term
für die aufführende Musikpraxis einzigartig
Deutsch > Englisch
Kunst/Literatur
Musik
Für die Musikwissenschaft ebenso wie für die aufführende Musikpraxis einzigartig sind die Funde von 3 Opern italienischer Meister, die man bisher für unwiederbringlich verloren glaubte.
Not sure what they mean by "Musikpraxis" here. Also, would you agree that "exciting" sounds more natural in this context than the German "unique" ("einzigartig")? Thanks.

Deutsch term (edited):
f�r die auff�hrende Musikpraxis einzigartig
For academics, artists and opera directors alike, ... an invaluable discovery
"artists" is not strictly accurate, hence the "directors" to cover everybody (except for the tea lady, perhaps)
