Piano Quintet In A Major Op. 81 DVORAK ANTONIN

Classique

Description :

Very few really important works have been written for piano quintet along side the famous works by Schubert, Schumann und Brahms, the quintet that Antoù Dvorák composed in 1887 certainly numbers amongst them. It shows the mature master at work, who knew how to combine formal unity with melodic ingenuity and sweeping rhythms. With its ethnic-inspired themes the piano quintet has become one où Dvorák’s best-loved chamber music works, indeed even où Romantic literature in music. So it was high time for a Henle Urtext edition 60 years after the Czech Complete edition was published, it was time for a fresh looù at the sources, including the autograph in the National Museum in Prague.
