Original

Vltava - violin II. The Moldau. Composed by Bedrich Smetana. 1824-1884. Edited by Hugh MacDonald. For orchestra. Violin II part. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag. BA.BA9558-75. "Vltava". The Moldau. is Smetana's most famous and frequently performed tone poem. It was written between 20 November and 8 December 1874, but only in 1879-1880, with the completion of the entire cycle "Ma vlast" did it appear in print, when Urbanek issued it in full score and a version for piano duet. Owing to the large number of misprints in the Urbanek first edition, Hugh Macdonald has based his new edition on the autograph score, with cross-references to the first edition and the composer's own version for piano duet. Conflicting readings in the sources are listed in the Critical Commentary along with a discussion of all editorial decisions. New Urtext edition with clear and uncluttered engraving. Informative foreword. Eng. Cz. Ger. including a contribution by Smetana scholar Olga Mojzisova. Includes a detailed Critical Commentary. Eng.
