Description

Antonin Dvořák (1841-1904) began working on his Symphony No. 9 in E Minor, Op. 95 "From the New World" in the first few months of 1893, during his stay in the USA where, in the years 1892-1895, he was director of the National Conservatory of Music in New York. While he did not leave behind any programme description for the symphony, he, himself, stated that he had at that time been greatly influenced by reading the epic poem The Song of Hiawatha by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Inspiration from the epic is cited both in connection with the celebrated Largo, describing the woodland burial of Minnehaha, and with the following Scherzo - an Indian ceremonial dance which here, however, also incorporates a Czech folk dance. Even in the last movement, Allegro con fuoco, written in sonata form like the first movement, Adagio. Allegro molto, the second subject is a reminiscence of a Czech folk melody. Dvořák's famous symphony is here published as a piano arrangement as part of the series " Popular Edition". Arranged for piano by Karel Solc.
