Dvorak - Violin Concerto in A Minor, Op.53

As in some previous publications of the editor, this again is an attempt to solve the problem presented on the one hand by an original text which, as it stands, provides only a bare outline of the composer's ideas of the instrumental execution and on the other by an edition, which fails to indicate where important additions or modifications have been made.

The editor had unfortunately not the original Manuscript this time at his disposal and this edition has therefore been based on the score of the Chech Publishing House "ARTIA", which is generally most reliable.

Dvorak's original text (Artia, Prague|), without any editorial modifications (and keeping even all obvious errors of the Mss.), is preserved in the violin part of the present piano score, whereas the separate violin part is an edited version. The differences can easily be seen by comparing the two.

The piano reduction is an entirely new transcription of the orchestral score.
