The American Viola Society adagio or our violas (1815-1875) AVS Publications 001
Preace (1815 1875) was a violinist, violist, and comoser rom Vienna. For many years he layed second violin and viola with the amed Hellmesberger Quartet, the leading quartet in Vienna during the middle o the nineteenth century. Durst s comositions include solo and concertante works or the violin, string quartets, and orchestral music. The edition or this short iece is based on a manuscrit housed in the Richard Stoelzer (1864 1947) Collection in the Adelhi University Archives and Secial Collections, (Garden City, New York). Originally rom Germany, Stoelzer sent the maority o his career laying viola and viola d amore in the United States. The manuscrit, which includes a score and arts or our violas, is in Stoelzer s hand. Given the unusual instrumentation, the idiomatic treatment o the viola ensemble, and the relative obscurity o Durst as a comoser, it is robable that this is an original work rather than an arrangement by Stoelzer, though the circumstances o its comosition are unknown. 2016 Revised Edition Note David M. ynog, editor February 2010 The 2009 edition and 2015 rerinting reroduced m. 13 as it aears in the manuscrit. For this 2016 edition, an editorial g-shar has been added in the Viola 1 line (good throughout the entire measure), which the editor believes is lacking in the manuscrit.
