Antonín Leopold Dvorák (1841 - 1904) was a Czech composer. Dvorák frequently employed rhythms and other aspects of the folk music of Moravia and his native Bohemia, following the Romantic-era nationalist example of his predecessor BedÅ™ich Smetana. Dvorák's style has been described as "the fullest recreation of a national idiom with that of the symphonic tradition, absorbing folk influences and finding effective ways of using them," and he himself has been described as "arguably the most versatile... composer of his time". He displayed his musical gifts at an early age, being an apt violin student. The first public performances of his works were in Prague in 1872 and, with special success, in 1873, when he was 31 years old. Seeking recognition beyond the Prague area, he submitted scores of symphonies and other works to German and Austrian competitions. He did not win a prize until 1874, with Johannes Brahms on the jury of the Austrian State Competition. In 1877, after his third win, Brahms recommended Dvorák to his publisher, Simrock, who commissioned what became the Slavonic Dances, Op. 46. The sheet music's high sales and critical reception led to his international success. A London performance of Dvorák's Stabat Mater in 1883 led to many other performances in the United Kingdom, the United States, and eventually Russia in March 1890. The Seventh Symphony was written for London in 1885.

The Romance in F minor, Op. 11, (B. 39) is a single-movement work for violin and piano by Antonín DvoÅ™ák, published in 1879. It was written at the request of Josef Markus, leader of the Provisional Theatre Orchestra in Prague; he would play it at the annual concert of the orchestra at Žofín Palace. It was first performed at the concert, conducted by Adolf ÄŒech, on 9 December 1877.

DvoÅ™ák based the work on the slow movement, marked Andante con moto quasi allegretto, of his String Quartet No. 5 in F minor. This quartet was composed in 1873 when the composer was not widely known; it was unperformed and unpublished in his lifetime. He wrote a version of the Romance in F minor with piano accompaniment, dedicated to the violinist František OndÅ™íček, which was not published in his lifetime. The orchestral version, and an arrangement for violin and piano (B. 38) made by DvoÅ™ák's friend Josef Zubatý, were published in 1879 by Simrock.The work is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two Bâ™­ clarinets, two bassoons, two horns, strings, and solo violin; its duration is about 12 minutes. According to Burghauser both settings were composed in September 1873 (same year as the Op.9 quartet) and revised in December 1877 for the premiere. Burghauser assigned different numbers for each setting in his catalog. Oddly, the composer's own violin and piano setting was not the one published by Simrock. It was not published until 2015 (Prague: Bärenreiter, Plate BA 9571).

The movement, in F minor, is marked Andante con moto. It is in sonata form: a graceful melody, from the String Quartet No. 5, leads to a theme in a contrasting key, of similar character, followed by a more restless theme and eventually to an episode of strident chords from the orchestra; the original calm mood prevails and the themes return; the work ends in F major.

Although originally composed for Violin & Piano, I created this Arrangement of The Romance (Romanze) in F Minor (Op. 11 B. 38) for Flute & Strings (2 Violins, Viola & Cello).
