Dvorak, A. - Violin Concerto in A minor Op. 53
- Description
Dvořák composed this concerto at his publisher's suggestion. He drafted it relatively swiftly in the summer of 1879, but completing it was a more drawn-out process that lasted until 1882. He had the famous violinist Joseph Joachim look over the violin part and also dedicated the concerto to him. However, Joachim's suggestions resulted in numerous reworkings, and he ultimately lost interest in the work. As a result, the world premiere was given by the Czech violinist František Ondříček. This formally unusual work begins and ends with a sonata rondo and adopts a Slavic tone throughout. After a lyrical middle movement, it closes with lively Czech dance rhythms. This Urtext edition draws on both the autograph and the first editions of the score, solo part, and piano reduction. The solo part has been marked up by one of the concerto's most knowledgeable exponents, world-famous violinist Augustin Hadelich.
