for string quartet. Par VASKS PETERIS. In 2013, Peteris Vasks set Mother Teresa’s peace prayer “The fruit of silence is prayer” for the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival.

In 1887 Antonin Dvorak 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 Ludevit Prochazka 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 Prochazka remains the sole source for this early piece of chamber music. Dvoraks first Piano Quintet was never published during his lifetime. This edition presents the musical text from the Complete Edition of the Works of Antonin Dvorak, IV/11. / Quintette Avec Piano

Score + Parties. Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. Bärenreiter's scholarly-critical edition of Brahms' popular Quintet in F minor for piano and strings contains everything a cutting edge Urtext edition is meant to offer. It presents a solid and wellresearched musical text based on Brahms' autograph as well as the first edition, and draws on the autograph of the two-piano version (composed six years later) for purposes of comparison. The edition also contains a discussion of the work's historical context and performance practice as well as a comprehensive Critical Commentary with an evaluation of the sources and alternative readings. The editor, Daniel Boomhower, deals with the conflicting readings between the string parts in the autograph engraver's copy and those found in small print in the first published score as well as in the separate parts for that edition. Relevant readings from the two-piano version appear in the appendix of the Critical Commentary. - New Bärenreiter Urtext edition - Exhaustive study of conflicting readings - Notes on performance practice (Eng/Ger) - Informative Foreword (Eng/Ger) and Critical Commentary (Eng)descriptive text to this edition will be provided on December 20./ Répertoire / Violon (2), Alto, Violoncelle, Piano
