À l'été 1894, Antonín Dvo?ák interrompt son séjour aux Etats-Unis pour passer ses vacances d'été en Bohême, son pays natal. C'est durant ces semaines heureuses qu'il écrivit ses huit Humoresques pour piano, lesquelles ne sont pas 'bohémiennes' pour autant, comme on aurait pu l'imaginer. Le compositeur avait d'ailleurs déjà esquissé une partie de la musique à New York, et il semble qu'il avait tout d'abord voulu composer une série d'écossaises. Il s'agit donc d'une musique d'inspiration internationale et de caractère tout à fait original. Elles sont toutes les huit de difficulté moyenne et permettent aux pianistes de tous âges de découvrir bien des choses nouvelles au-delà de la célèbre septième pièce. L'édition Urtext d'Henle s'appuie sur la première édition, soigneusement confrontée à l'autographe par les éditeurs. / Piano

Among the best of Jean Sibelius’ oeuvre are his 1917 compositions the Humoresques. This fabulous and charming concerto was divided into two groups for publication Opus 87 and Opus 89 and demonstrates his sublime skill with the Violin. He used a considerably smaller Orchestra accompaniment to the Violin in the second group but maintained the subtlety of depth and texture. Though there are traditional elements to all parts of this opus Humoresque No. 4 harks back to the past the most reminiscent of the delicacy of mid-nineteenth century musical miniatures. Virtuosic and challenging the soloist has the opportunity to indulge in a more traditionallyexhibitionistic display. This work features a seperate Violin part with a Piano reduction of the String Orchestra by Karl Ekman.

This fabulous and charming concerto was divided into two groups for publication Opus 87 and Opus 89 and demonstrates his sublime skill with the Violin. He uses a considerably smaller Orchestra accompaniment to the Violin in the second group but maintains the subtlety of depth and texture. The opening bars of the Fifth Humoresque act as a continuation of the minor tonality that dominated the previous two pieces but the music soon reverts into a warmer major mood. Op.89 No.3 is the highlight of this group and one of Sibelius' most immediately compelling creations.

Beginners often find the compositions of Antonin Dvo ák frustratingly difficult to play but this introductory volume provides an accessible and satisfying entrée to the Czech composer's oeuvre. Excerpts from his more abstract works are presented in manageable samples with simplified keys and fingerings and the pieces are presented in gradually increasing order of difficulty. There are an assortment of Dvo ák's well-known and much-loved compositions. Humoresques is a piano cycle inspired by his sojourn in the United States. Slavonic Dances was influenced by Brahms' HungarianDances. Flavorful pieces rooted in folk music including excerpts from the Czech Suite and Prague Waltzes and a pair of lively mazurkas are featured. Other highlights include 'Songs My Mother Taught Me ' 'The Noon Witch ' and pieces from cello and violin concertos and symphonic movements. All thirty-six selections are available as downloadable MP3s.
