Description NEW REVISED VERSIONS OF FAMOUS VIOLIN WORKS

Do you not want to spend time with editing of sheet music, which have been already "revised"? If not, you can now download the revised violin parts by violin virtuoso Pavel Burdych, including bowings and fingering, from which can play immediately ! These revisions were made in the course of several years and they are proven in practice to dozens of concerts in worldwide.

Romance in F minor originated thanks to an initiative from leader of the Provisional Theatre Orchestra Josef Markus. Markus requested from Dvorak a new piece for his appearance at the annual concert organised by the Theatre Orchestra and Choir Pension Association, which was held at Prague’s Zofin on 9 December 1877. For his new piece Dvorak borrowed the introductory part of the second movement of his String Quartet No. 5 in F minor, written in 1873. In addition to this segment, which became the main theme of Romance, Dvorak added two new themes, treating them in traditional sonata form. The composer then wrote an arrangement immediately after this for violin with piano accompaniment, a version he dedicated to his friend, the violin virtuoso Frantisek Ondricek. Romance has an exceptionally beautiful melody and its orchestral version is also graceful and temperate. For these qualities it has become one of the most popular compositions of its type. Its orchestral version (and also an accompanying piano score in an arrangement by Josef Zubaty) was brought out by Simrock in 1879; Dvorak’s version with piano was only published in 1955 as part of a collected critical edition of the composer’s works.
