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. Beveridge (Cz/Eng/Ger)- Critical Commentary (Eng) by the editor / Violon Et Piano

Liszt composed the Romance oubliee around 1844 for Piano. It was forgotten until he heard Violist Hermann Ritter at the first performance of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen at Bayreuth. He fashioned for Ritter a transcription of the work for Viola and Piano as well as ones for the Piano, Violin and Violoncello.In this short work, the listener hears the agonies of a troubled soul, beginning with a rhapsodic passage, continuing with a cadenza-like section, then a section with arpeggiated figures, finally settling into a peaceful ending.This 4 minute work is appropriate for advanced performers. With Mr. Sauer's arrangement we now have this lovely version for Trombone and Piano.
