for Piano, Violin, Viola, Violoncello

- First scholarly-critical edition

- Includes a foreword (Cz/Eng/Ger) and critical commentary (Eng) by the editor

- Standard work of Czech music

The piano quartet of Josef Suk (1874–1935) quickly became a standard work, not least as a result of the extensive concerts given by the Bohemian Quartet, in which Suk was second violinist.

This is however the first scholarly-critical edition of this work.  It is based largely on the revision of the first edition which appeared in 1924 and contains Suk’s alterations of 1914.  Further sources include the autograph manuscript as well as newly discovered copies of the parts.  Valuable information has also been extracted from printed parts of which the original copies are now no longer extant.
