The melodies for Czech Suite, a work for accordion ensemble in three movements, originate from the rich folk culture of the Czech Republic. These strong melodies have survived the test of time and are still sung and played in the Czech Republic today.

De melodieën voor Czech Suite (Tsjechische suite), een werk voor accordeonensemble in drie delen, zijn afkomstig uit de rijke volkscultuur van Tsjechië. Het zijn sterke melodieën die de tand des tijds hebben overleefd en ookvandaag de dag nog in Tsjechië worden gezongen en gespeeld.

Die Melodien für die Czech Suite, einem Werk für Akkordeonorchester in drei Sätzen, stammen aus dem Volksliedgut der Tschechischen Republik. Diese kraftvollen Melodien widerstanden dem Zahn der Zeit und werden in Tschechien heute noch gesungen und gespielt. Hotze Jelsma fasste drei davon in seiner überzeugenden Tschechischen Suite für Akkordeonorchester zusammen.

Czech Suite (“Suite Tchèque”) est une suite en trois mouvements. Les mélodies plongent leurs racines dans la richesse des traditions culturelles tchèques. Leur profondeur et leur beauté ont su résister aux vicissitudes du temps. Aussi sont-elles encore chantées et jouées de nos jours en République Tchèque.

Known internationally for superior flute editions, Robert Stallman continues his considerable expansion of the flute repertoire with re-creations, or “new” works for flute by Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven, Chopin, Dvořák, and other great composers.Conceived originally as a work for solo piano, this arrangement of Dvořák’s Suite in A Major for flute and piano is based on both the piano and orchestra versions. It is one in a series of Stallman’s “new” works for flute. Dvořák composed the Suite in A Major in 1894, inspired by his happy and fruitful stay in the “New World” —a period that produced some of his greatest works, full of thematic freshness, raw energy and folk influences, both American and Old World Czech. The “New World” Symphony, Cello Concerto, “American” Quartet, String Quintet in E≤ Major, the Violin Sonatina and this A Major Suite are all cut from the same musical cloth—textured with his personal impressions of the Wild West’s fascinating Indian and Afro-American music, its God-fearing and friendly people, its vast open spaces and its awe-inspiring natural beauty.
PrefaceConceived originally as a work for solo piano, the Suite in A Major was composed by Dvořák in 1894, during his famous two-year visit to the United States. He wrote the work in a mere ten days, and a year later made a full orchestration of it. The Suite was first performed in this second version in 1910 in Prague at the Rudolfinum. Dvořák, who died in 1904, never had a chance to hear a performance of this stirring orchestral realization.The Suite was inspired by the composer’s happy and fruitful stay in the “New World”, especially by his unforgettable summers spent in the quiet Czech-American village of Spillville, Iowa—a period that produced some of his greatest works, full of thematic freshness, raw energy and folk influences, both American and Old World Czech. The “New World” Symphony, Cello Concerto, “American” Quartet, String Quintet in Eb Major, the Violin Sonatina and this A Major Suite are all cut from the same musical cloth—textured with his personal impressions of the Wild West’s fascinating Indian and Afro-American music, its God-fearing and friendly people, its vast open spaces and its awe-inspiring natural beauty.Several of the Suite’s affecting melodies find echoes in these other, better known compositions of this American period. Wistful themes abound in all five movements, reflecting Dvořák’s transformative American experience as it found resonance in his own emotions. Contrasting with deeply felt, contemplative passages are Dvořák’s joyous and tempestuous expressions, which open the second, third and final movements.This arrangement for flute and piano is based on both the piano and orchestra versions. It is one in a series of my “new” works for flute by some of our greatest composers and I am delighted to add it to the collection. I predict that the A Major Suite will become a popular addition to our Romantic recital repertoire, much like the Dvořák Sonatina.—Robert StallmanMarblehead, Mass.June 1, 2018.
