The
discovery of a lost
source to AntonÃn
Dvorák's
â??Nocturneâ? in B
major op. 40 provides new
insights into the genesis
of the composition and
the composer's intended
final form of this
lyrical little piece for
string
orchestra.
The
musical material of what
was later to be named
â??Nocturneâ? was
initially elaborated in
the String Quartet in E
minor; subsequently it
was used in the original
version of the String
Quintet in G major as its
second movement. However
Dvorák then extracted
it again, expanding and
editing it afresh. The
final result was the
â??Nocturneâ? for
string orchestra (two
violins, viola,
violoncello, double
bass). The first edition
was published by Bote and
Bock in 1883.
The
authorized second copy of
the work that had served
as a template for the
first printing was
discovered by the editor
Jonáš Hájek in a
privately owned
collection. This enabled
him to resolve the
several ambiguities
caused by the existence
of multiple versions and
to unveil the authentic
â??Nocturneâ?.
