About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Classical
- Description: Antonín Dvorák had a passion for chamber music; he liked playing it with friends, and perhaps soon came to realize how good a commercial commodity such pieces represented. He wrote the first of his two piano quartets at the age of 34, by which time many a was interested in his works. The Czech media voiced their satisfaction that Dvorák had moved beyond foreign influence, with the Slavic spirit having prevailed in his music. Cases in point include his Moravian Duets, Op. 20, and Serenades, Op. 22, created at the same time. The Fritz Simrock bitterly regretted having rejected the first quartet, persistently reminding the composer InchI would gladly take a piano quartet, preferably even twoInch. When in the summer of 1889 Dvorák got down to writing his second quartet, he complained of having a Inchslow handInch, yet stressed that he had plenty of ideas InchMy head is full of it... I have finished three movements of a new quartet with piano, and the finale will be ready in a few days. It has gone smoothly beyond expectation, with the melodies rolling in to me.Inch The sheer beauty of the piece was cogently described by the prominent Vienna-based critic Eduard Hanslick InchThe quartet requires that the listener be considerably attentive and well informed, which, however, really pays off.Inch The ensemble bearing the composer's name have linked up to the feted tradition of their great teachers - Ivan Moravec, Josef Vlach and Milan Škampa. They present Dvorák at his finest, both conventional and sophisticated.
