The present edition of the Scottish Dances Op.41 (1877) by Antonín Dvorák is based on a version for piano four hands published by Berlin publisher Bote and Bock in 1893.This has been compared with the critical edition of the original version for two hands included in the Complete Edition of the Works of Antonín Dvorák. The editors strove to make the interpretation of this piece easier for young pianists by revising the dynamics adding pedal markings and convenient fingerings and by introducing minute changes into the actual notation which bring the edition somewhat closer to the original version for two hands.
