## Summary

Sheet music for Antonín Dvořák's Slavonic Dances, Op. 46/B. 83: No. 8 in G minor (Furiant), arranged for Salon/Theater Orchestra, including conductor score and parts.

## Description

Two series of Slavonic Dances, each consisting of eight numbers and separated by eight years, were composed by Antonín Dvorák (1841-1904). The idea for the dances was suggested by the publisher N. Simrock, who had been introduced to Dvorák's Moravian Duets through Johannes Brahms. Recognizing the national character and remarkable talent of the then little-known Czech composer, Simrock suggested he create a series of Slavonic Dances in a style similar to that which had recently proved so successful in the base of Brahms' Hungarian Dances. Rather than using actual folk melodies, Dvorák drew on authentic Slavonic rhythms and dance types, creating original themes that capture the energy, lyricism, and cultural identity of his homeland. The first set, Op. 46, composed in 1878 for piano duet and later orchestrated by the composer, quickly became one of his most popular works. Slavonic Dance Op. 46, No. 8, a lively furiant a fast, fiery Czech dance marked by shifting accents, stands among the most exuberant and nationally characteristic pieces in the set. Czech composer and violin virtuoso Bohuslav Leopold (1888-1956) later arranged several of the Slavonic Dances for small theater orchestra, including this vivid and rhythmically charged arrangement of Op. 46, No. 8. Instrumentation: 1+Picc.2.2.2: 4.2.3.0: Timp.Perc(3): Str (9.8.7.6.5 in set): CS (Pno-Cond) in set (winds cross-cued for perf by smaller orchs). Reprint edition.
