Dvořák: Romance in F minor Op. 11 for Violin is a deeply expressive Romantic work edited by Klaus Döge, featuring autograph pages from the original score.
Romantic lyricism and Bohemian warmth define Dvořák: Romance in F minor Op. 11 for Violin by Antonín Dvořák, edited by Klaus Döge and published by Carus-Verlag. Composed in 1879 at the request of Josef Markus for performance at Prague’s Žofín Palace, this single-movement gem transforms the slow movement of Dvořák’s String Quartet No. 5 into an expansive, singing violin showcase.
Deeply expressive yet classically poised, the Romance unfolds in a seamless arc of long-breathed melody and glowing orchestral color (here presented in violin edition). Its tender F-minor lyricism invites supple phrasing, nuanced vibrato, and refined tonal shading. This Carus edition is distinguished by the inclusion of pages from Dvořák’s autograph score, offering performers a rare glimpse into the composer’s manuscript and artistic process—an inspiring resource for both study and performance.
