It is with the 'Slavonic Dances' op. 46 that Antonín Dvorák won international recognition in 1878. Apart from Symphony No. 9, 'From the New World', and Cello Concerto op. 104, they are among the best-known works by Dvorák. Unlike Brahms in his 'Hungarian Dances', Dvorák did not use any original melodies but incorporated characteristic elements of Slavonic dance music within his own melodic invention. Instrumentation : piano (4 hands) op. 46/7

Danse slave n° 7 en ut mineur - op. 46/7. piano (4 hands).

The remark of the music critic Louis Ehlert on the Slavonic Dances that this 'is good for the soul of a decent musician' could also apply to Dvorak's compositions of waltzes and mazurkas : They are a successful balancing act between compositional stylization and musical immediacy. Instrumentation : piano op. 56/4

Mazurka en ré mineur - op. 56/4. piano.

The sonatina op. 100, written during Dvorák's stay in the USA in 1893, is dedicated to his six children. On January 2, 1894, the composer wrote to his publisher Simrock : "Thank God, I am healthy and well, having just completed my 100th work, a sonatina for violin and piano. It is intended for the youth (dedicated to my children), but grown-ups, adults, shall enjoy themselves with it as they see fit". Inspired by the fascinating landscape of Northern America and by meetings with the native Indian inhabitants, a wealth of impressions has found its way into the movements of this sonatina. And that, accordingly, makes it a part of the teaching canon that is not only useful, but also very attractive. Instrumentation : violin and piano op. 100
