Dumky, Op. 90 published by Editio Supraphon.
Dvorak began writing the Dumky piano trio some time in
November 1890. This dumka
collection does not offer the customary formation of the cyclical sonata piece,
but,
analogous to the Slavonic Dances, instead a series of six short movements, of
which
each is a musical stylisation of the dumka in Dvorak's characteristic
interpretation.
Unlike the Slavonic Dances, however, this work nevertheless manifests a certain
structural and thematic continuity. It was first performed as early as April
1891,
with Dvorak himself playing the piano part. This title is part of the first
Complete
Critical Edition of Works by Antonin Dvorak.
