Summary of This Score
Dvo?ák's Waltzes and Mazurkas prove to be a successfully contrived balancing act between stylised composition and musical immediacy. The music critic Louis Ehlert once wrote of Dvo?ák's Slavonic Dances that they made a real musician's heart laugh within him; the comment might equally well be applied to these pieces. These "Waltzes and Mazurkas"
Designed for pianists seeking pieces that are both accessible and expressive, this score highlights Antonín Dvo?ák's art of the miniature: music that "speaks" immediately while remaining finely crafted. The waltzes invite work on fluidity of touch, balance between melody and accompaniment, as well as the natural breathing of phrases. The mazurkas, with their dance character, allow exploration of a flexible pulse, subtly displaced accents, and controlled rubato, essential for bringing the style to life.
In study, these pages provide an excellent ground for developing color and nuance at the piano: management of sound layers, inner singing, legato, but also rhythmic clarity and precision of articulations. In recital, they integrate easily into a romantic music program, complementing other dances or character pieces, thanks to their variety of moods and sense of momentum.
