Early piano quintet for Piano 2 Violins Viola VioloncelloIn 1887 Anton n Dvorák revised several of the works he had composed in the 1860s and 1870s most of which he then published for the first time.In this context he asked the music critic Ludev t Procházka to return a manuscript copy of the Piano Quintet in A major Op.5 (B 28) composed 15 years earlier. But after thoroughly revising the work he declined to publish it; instead he wrote a new piano quintet in the same key the famous Op.81. And so the manuscript copy he requested from Procházka remains the sole source for this early piece of chamber music.Dvorák?s first Piano Quintet in A majorwas never published during his lifetime. This edition presents the musical text from the ?Complete Edition of the Works of Anton n Dvorák? Volume IV/11.Now with a new detailed Foreword (Eng/Cz/Ger) by David R. Beveridge

Lubo? Fi?er (1935?1999) was one of the most distinctive figures of Czech music in the 20th century and composed the Variations on an Unknown Theme in 1976. The ?unknown theme? was a prankish eight-bar theme from Fi?er?s student days. In the elation following the home-team win over Canada on 15 March 1959, he made a bet with his colleague Kalach to compose a concert piece for violin and orchestra with the working title ?Canada-Rondo?. The whimsical contest was abandoned, but Fi?er did not forget the theme and he later created variations on it for his new composition for the Talich Quartet. The Variations on an Unknown Theme have now been published for the first time ever. This edition is based on the autograph of the score which is housed in the Czech Museum of Music in Prague.
