Antonin Dvorak: Piano Quartet in E-Flat Major, Op. 87

(replaces H 2552)Dvorak's Piano Quartet in D major, though composed at the height of the composer's 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 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. / Violon, Alto, Violoncelle Et Piano

Vers la fin du 19ème siècle le quatuor avec piano a été établi comme un genre à part la chambre sophistiquée musique. Il n'est donc pas surprenant que l'éditeur Fritz Simrock demandé Dvorák pour une nouvelle contribution au genre.Le Quatuor avec piano deuxième mi bémol majeur op. 87 a été composé durant l'été de 1889 au cours d'un torrent de la créativité: 'Ma tête est si pleine, si un être humain ne pouvait écrire tout cela tout de suite! [...] Il est facile de façon inattendue et les mélodies tout simplement couler vers moi. Merci à Dieu! 'Ces mots pourraient décrire le quatuor lui-même, un travail avec le ton insouciance caractéristique claire et coloration nationaliste. La principale source de cette publication était la première édition (1890). / Piano, Violon, Alto Et Violoncelle

First ever publication based on the autographOriginally written for violin and orchestra between 1873 and 1877, Dvorák's 'Romance? immediately followed his String Quartet in F minor (1873) and draws on the theme from its slow movement. He probably wrote the 'Romance? for his friend, the violin virtuoso Franti?ek Ondrícek, who later premiered Dvorák's Violin Concerto in 1883.Our edition is the first to avail itself of the recently rediscovered autograph of Dvorák's own version for violin and piano. Compared to the well-known piano reductions, it differs from the orchestral version in several important respects and is also one bar shorter.Our new edition, containing the composer's more authentic version, can nevertheless also serve as a piano reduction to the orchestral version.- First edition of the piano version based on Dvorák's autograph- Foreword by David R.
