Adagio

Zoltán Kodály (1882-1967) composed Adagio for violin and piano in 1905 and dedicated it to the outstanding violinist Imre Waldbauer. In 1910 Kodály made versions of the work for both viola and cello, while Norbert Duka transcribed it for double bass. In 2014 we published all four versions of Adagio in a new edition.Adagio for violin and piano: Z. 14911\ Adagio for viola and piano: Z. 14894\ Adagio for violoncello and piano: Z. 14895\ Adagio for double bass and piano: Z. 14896 (The former catalogue number was Z. 768.)
