It was the ?Slavonic Dances for Piano Duet? op. 46 which brought Antonín Dvorák unexpected international fame. An unerring business instinct led Fritz Simrock, at the beginning of 1878, to ask the Czech composer for some works for piano duet into which Dvorák incorporated musical themes from where he grew up. Following in the footsteps of Brahms?s ?Hungarian Dances?, Dvorák refrained from a literal portrayal of individual kinds of dance. As a result, he created unique masterpieces of European music for domestic use and concert performance.'

Czech composer Antonin Dvorak is best-known for his beautiful string-quartets his symphonies (especially nr.9 'From the New World') and his Slavonic Dances Op. 46 and 72. Dutch composer and arrranger Jan Bosveld adapted two dances (nrs. 4 and 7) from his opus 46 to the wind-band medium. Alternating between the virtuoso and the melancholy these lovely little pieces for orchestra above all provoke responses of instant recognition with your audiences. Uit de Slavische Dansen Opus 46 bewerkte Jan Bosveld op kleurrijke wijze de 4e en 6e dans. De weemoed passie en vreugde straalt af van zijn prachtige muziek en nu dus ook voor concertband.

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. Dvorák’s Waltzes and Mazurkas prove to be a successfully contrived balancing act between stylised composition and musical immediacy. The music critic Louis Ehlert once wrote of Dvorák’s Slavonic Dances that they made a real musician’s heart laugh within him; the comment might equally well be applied to these pieces. These “Waltzes and Mazurkas” rank alongside the works of Chopin in terms of artistic merit, yet they are not widely known and have not hitherto been heard as often in concert halls as they deserve. The Urtext version of these dances is published for the first time in this edition./ Répertoire / Piano

Antonin Dvorak (1841-1904).Bagatelles Op. 47 For Piano Quartet (2 Violins Violoncello Piano/Harmonium).Dvorak was working on his first series of Slavonic Dances when it was requested that he write a piece for a private circle of chamber enthusiasts musician friends with whom the composer occasionally performed as violist or Harmonium player. Over the course of a few days in May 1878 he produced a quartet for two Violins Cello and Harmonium originally entitled Malickosti (Bagatelles); the printed version later introduced the title Bagatelles.Although the themes are less complicatedand fewer demands are made on the players this cannot be described as music in a simpler style.The score and parts published as part of the first Complete Critical Edition of Works by Antonin Dvorak were edited for publication by Frantisek Bartos.
