Trio-The musical term 'Dumka' originates from the Ukrainian language and means 'an epic ballad ? generally thoughtful or melancholic in character'.Dvorák?s magnum opus in the Piano trio genre takes its name from its ?Dumka? movements which he composed whilst in Prague in 1890-91. After long hesitation he finally prepared a Piano reduction while he was in the United States in the summer of 1893. The previous year Dvorák had played the work on a forty-concert farewell tour of Bohemia with Ferdinand Lachner and Hans Wihan.The editor of this Barenreiter edition Christoph Flamm took the Simrock print as his starting point. However he alsocarefully distinguished between the various reissues and consulted Dvorák?s sketches as well as his Piano reduction.

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. For several years following composition of his first piano quartet, Dvorák?s publisher Simrock pushed him to compose a follow-up piece in the genre. The work, written during a few short weeks in summer 1889, fulfilled Simrock?s wishes. With his op. 87, Dvorák delivered a challenging and mature work in which a mastery of form is combined with memorable themes and surprising harmonic turns, leading it quickly to conquer the hearts of both performers and audiences. The engraver?s model for the first edition is lost; but together with the first edition the autograph survives as a second source for our critical edition, with which Henle continues its series of Urtext editions of this composer. / Date parution : 2023-05-06/ Répertoire / Quatuor avec Piano
