Antonin Dvořák (1841-1904), a striking representative of Czech national music, had to wait a long time for the recognition of his talent. A large part of his early work came into being without performance and when his music finally became known in Prague concert life — the composer was by then over thirty — the public was amazed to find mature works of real Czech provenance. In the mid-seventies of the 19th century Dvořák also began to become known abroad thanks to his Moravian Duets. The Berlin publisher Dvořák asked for more compositions in the Czech or "Slavonic" style and in 1878 Dvořák composed the first series of Slavonic Dances, originally for piano four hands, shortly after this in the orchestral version. These are mainly idealizations of Czech folk dances the temperamental furiant with its changing rhythm (l and 8), the then popular polka (3), the calm, three-beat sousedská (4 and 6) and the quick skočná dance (5 and 7); only No. 2 is a stylization of the Ukrainian dumka. The first series was so successful that Simrock asked for a continuation, but this took 8 years to complete (1886). The second series of dances is in a different style the composer's further artistic development is clear. The majority of these dances are from other Slavonic nations: Slovak (9), Polish (14), Serbian (15), Ukrainian (10 and 12), only three numbers are of Czech origin (11, 13, 16). The stirring rhythm, brilliant instrumentation and vital optimism — all this makes the Slavonic Dances a real jewel of Czech music.
