It was the Slavonic Dances for Piano Duet op. 46 which brought Antonín Dvorák unexpected international fame. An unerring business instinct led Fritz Simrock, at the beginning of 1878, to ask the Czech composer for some works for piano duet into which Dvorák incorporated musical themes from where he grew up. Following in the footsteps of Brahms s Hungarian Dances , Dvorák refrained from a literal portrayal of individual kinds of dance. As a result, he created unique masterpieces of European music for domestic use and concert performance.''This edition of both series of the Slavonic Dances is based on the Complete Edition of the Works of Antonín Dvorák . The main sources are the first editions published by Simrock.''- Separate editions of these works based on the Complete Edition of Antonín Dvorák's Works , vol. V/5'- New forewords (Cz/Eng/Ger) by Hans-Joachim Hinrichsen and Ivana Rentsch'- Newly engraved in score format / [Danses Slaves pour Piano 4 Mains Opus 72] / Classique / Partition /

In his Slavonic Dances Op. 46, Dvorak did not draw on pre-existent music, but created something original and new, projecting his own compositional will into the creative process. What we hear are Dvoraks melodies,and that it is due to his creative will that he cast them as in Dance 3, for example in the form of a melodic four-tone model which is common to many folk songs and childrens songs. Finally, it is his rhythmic invention and shaping of the musical character of each dance that breathe life into the elements of Slavonic dance music.The Slavonic Dances Op. 46, which began to conquer the world's concert halls in 1878, made a major contribution to Dvorak's international breakthrough. The Urtext edition is based on the main sources, mainly on the autograph score and the first edition.
