Slavonic Dances op. 46 & 72

Album by Antonín Dvořák & Česká filharmonie & Václav Talich

Slavonic Dances, Opp. 46 and 72 are sets of orchestral and piano four-hand dances by Czech composer Antonín Dvořák, composed in 1878 and 1886 respectively. Drawing on Bohemian and broader Slavic dance rhythms and folk idioms, they feature lively rhythms, colourful orchestration and contrasting moods, and they helped establish Dvořák's international reputation while influencing late 19th-century interest in national schools of composition.
