In G Major. Par DVORAK ANTONIN. The performance material available up till now for Dvorák' s sun-filled cheerful Symphony no. 8 has been notorious for its myriad mistakes. The challenge of correcting it has now been taken over by the editor Jonathan Del Mar. He has taken into account the engraver' s copy, which was actually discovered in a trash bin at Novello' s in 1964. Its title page bears the words ' Copied from my original manuscript” in Dvorák' s hand. This source proves that many of the readings contained in the first edition and faithfully adopted in all subsequent editions, were simply slips of the copyist' s pen. This new edition with score and orchestral parts in an enlarged format is accompanied by a detailed Critical Commentary on the sources and alternative readings. It also contains important facsimile pages to clarify problematical readings. - Score and orchestral parts in an enlarged format - Informative Foreword (Eng/Cz/Ger) and Critical Commentary (Eng) on sources and alternative readings - With facsimile pages/ Répertoire / Orchestre
