Dvorak No. 3

Post by Z-Tuba Dude »

Hey Guys,

Is the Dvorak Symphony No. 3 fun to play?

Never encountered it before.

Luck's Music Library lists a "Critical Edition" by Bartos which includes tuba in the instrumentation, and another edition published by Simrock (Dvorak's original publisher) which has no tuba part.

That doesn't answer your question about whether it's a fun piece to play...or perhaps it does.

Could the discrepancy be due to the multiple numbering systems for Dvorak's works? I am thinking of the 9/5 mixup...
