Dvorak composed this deservedly popular work 1878 shortly after the premiere of his opera "The Cunning Peasant." Scored for a 'harmonie' ensemble of 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 3 horns and contrabassoon, with an cello and string bass added to support the bass line. The composer conducted the premiere on November 17, 1878 in a concert of his music held in Prague's Provisional Theatre. Published early the next year, it has been in the repertoire ever since. The score offered here is a reissue of the 1956 critical edition of Frantisek Bartos. Unlike so many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.
Composed over the space of just 12 days (May 3-14, 1875), Dvorak's five-movement serenade has been a favorite since its first performance was given in Prague under the baton of Adolf Cech with the combined string sections of the orchestras of the Czech and German theatres. The new study score offered here is a digitally-enhanced reprint of the score first issued in 1955 as part of the Dvorak complete works by the Czech State publishing house SNKLHU, edited by Frantisek Bartos. Available now for the first time in an affordable, easy-to-read size. As with all Petrucci Library Press scores, a percentage of each sale is contributed to support the award-winning free wiki for music scores and recordings, IMSLP/Petrucci Music Library.
Dvorak received a commission for this work in 1877 for a benefit concert to raise funds for the construction of a new church in Prague. Composed between August 6 and 28 September, it was first performed on December 2 at the Provisional Threatre, with the orchestra conducted by Ludevit Prochazka as the composer's opus 40. It would be eleven years before the work was first published however, and Dvorak's publisher Simrock assigned the opus number of 78 to imply they were bringing out a new work. The work entered the symphonic repertoire gradually after its 1888 publication and remains extremely popular today. The score offered here is a reissue of the 1957 critical edition of Frantisek Bartos and Jiri Berkovec.

Dvorak had long refused the repeated requests for a cello concerto from his friend, the renowned cellist Hanus Wihan (1855-1920) until he attended the premiere of Victor Herbert's second concerto in New York in the fall of 1894 during his tenure as director of the National Conservatory. The second movement of Herbert's concerto was in B minor, which might have been a factor in Dvorak's choice of the same key for his own concerto, which was started in New York on November 8, 1894 and completed on February 8 of the following year. Despite the dedication to Wihan, the first performance was given by the English cellist Leo Stern in London's Queen's Hall on March 19, 1896 with the composer conducting the London Philharmonic. This new study score is a reprint of the critical edition prepared by Fratisek Bartos for the Collected Works issued by the Czech State Publisher in 1955. Unlike so many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable.
