Description: Dvorks Violin Concerto was composed between 1879 and 1882, with the active assistance of Joseph Joachim, and was issued by the publisher Fritz Simrock, Berlin in 1883. Its premiere took place in October of that same year with Frantiek Ondrcek as soloist. This new Urtext edition is based on the first edition (score, solo violin part, piano reduction and orchestral parts). It also takes Dvorks autograph which served as a master copy for the engraving into consideration. A fresh assessment of Dvorks manuscript made it possible to reconstruct several variants ignored in the first and subsequent editions and to clarify ambiguities in the notation and articulation. An important component of our Urtext edition is the original piano reduction, which probably stems from Dvork himself, and in which Joseph Joachims fingering is published. // Early piano quintet In 1887 Antonn Dvork revised several of the works he had composed in the 1860s and 1870s, most of which he then published for the first time. In this context he asked the music critic Ludevt Prochzka to return a manuscript copy of the Piano Quintet in A major op. 5 (B 28), composed 15 years earlier. But after thoroughly revising the work he declined to publish it; instead, he wrote a new piano quintet in the same key the famous op. 81. And so, the manuscript copy he requested from Prochzka remains the sole source for this early piece of chamber music. Dvorks first Piano Quintet in A major was never published during his lifetime. This edition presents the musical text from the Complete Edition of the Works of Antonn Dvork, Volume IV/11. // Dvorks Piano Quartet in D major, though composed at the height of his artistic maturity, is to date unjustly overshadowed by his more popular works. It was written within the space of 18 days in the summer of 1875 and was later revised, probably in preparation for its publication. This revision, which was also taken into account for the first edition issued by the publisher Schlesinger, Berlin in 1880, serves as the primary source for this new Urtext edition. The premiere took place in Prague in 1880.
