Program Notes
Slavonic Dance, Op 46 No 7 was arranged for woodwind choir by David J. Gardner. Slavonic Dance, No. 7 is a light, bouncy piece with lots of variations on the main theme. Contrasting dynamic and the alternating of thin and thick scoring adds interest throughout. The "surprise" ending should be performed as rapidly as possible.
- Program Note from score
Like Bartok, Antonín Dvořák used folk rhythms and inspiration from his native Bohemia and Moravia. Dvořák was commissioned to compose 16 dances by his German music publisher Simrock. The dances are in two sets of eight dances each and originally composed for four-hand piano. The first set, Op. 46, were published in 1878 and were successful immediately. They led to Dvořák gaining an international reputation. The second set of eight, Op. 72, was published in 1886.
This particular dance is a "skočná" -- a lively dance in two.
