ISBN 9790004332498. 10 x 12.5 inches.

In his Slavonic Dances Op. 46, Dvorak did not draw on pre-existent music, but created something original and new, projecting his own compositional will into the creative process. What we hear are Dvoraks melodies,and that it is due to his creative will that he cast them as in Dance 3, for example in the form of a melodic four-tone model which is common to many folk songs and childrens songs. Finally, it is his rhythmic invention and shaping of the musical character of each dance that breathe life into the elements of Slavonic dance music.

Oh the tempi, how terrible! Dvorak often complained bitterly about tempi, and with good reason, as the respected Dvorak expert Klaus Doge discovered while preparing his edition of the Eighth.

Oh the tempi, how terrible! Dvorak often complained bitterly about tempi, and with good reason, as the respected Dvorak expert Klaus Doge discovered while preparing his edition of the Eighth.The composer's conducting score, which also served as the engraver's copy, has resurfaced again and offers sensational findings for performers. The copy contains an entire series of added tempo entries that were not all incorporated into the first edition. Doge's edition now sheds light into the previously misleading tempo markings. Breitkopf's new edition is also the first performing material to this key work of late-romantic orchestral literature that can be purchased in its entirety as sales material. Following the New World Symphony, the Slavonic Dances op. 46 and the Violoncello Concerto, Dvorak's fourth major orchestral work is now available in Breitkopf's customary high quality.
