    Dvorak began working on his sixth piano trio (today the fourth in existence), with its subtitle “Dumky” (“Dumkas”), immediately after completing his Requiem, in November 1890. It took him less than three months to complete, and this including an extended break from his endeavours. As he progressed Dvorak informed his friend Gobl that he was working on a new composition which he characterised as “a little piece for violin, cello and piano. It will be both happy and sad. In some places it will be like a melancholic song, elsewhere like a merry dance; but, all told, the style will be lighter or, if I might put it another way, more popular, in short, so that it will appeal to both higher and lower echelons.” The mention of this deliberate “lightness” of style might explain why the highly popular “Dumky” has, in the long term, eclipsed the composer’s masterpiece, the Piano Trio in F minor, even though it cannot match its sophistication, the gravity of its musical testimony or its intellectual depth. The premiere of the “Dumky” was performed just two months after Dvorak had completed the score, in Prague on 11 April 1891, during a gala evening held in his honour - Dvorak had recently been awarded an honorary degree from Prague’s university. Dvorak himself sat at the piano for the premiere. This was not the last time that he performed this work in public: we have documentation which confirms that Dvorak performed his “Dumky” at the piano on forty-four occasions. The majority of these were part of an extended “farewell” concert tour of Czech and Moravian towns and cities which the composer organised in the spring of 1892 before his departure for the United States. The trio was published in 1894 by Berlin-based publisher Simrock. At this time Dvorak was still in the United States, so the corrections were selflessly carried out by his friend, Johannes Brahms.

    I was assigned this piece to play at my school, and I got a really good group, and was super excited to play it. We had a few rehearsals which went very well, but then Covid came along. The ensemble was stopped, and we started online school, meaning no more chamber music. Right now I am trying to start the group up again, but it's been almost a year since we last practiced together. Hopefully we can play again soon, because this is such a beautiful piece.

      Something similar happened with me at my school. I was extremely excited to perform it, and extremely disappointed that we couldn't. And, how strange, I too am just starting up the group again (with a different violinist, but) and trying to organize socially distanced rehearsals. If our rehearsals of the first two movements go well, I think we might play all 6.

    I find it instructive that at 4:11 Dvorak has the first violin play the exact same notes (the melody) twice but the harmony in the cello and piano differ from the first playing of the theme and the second playing of the theme. This sort of an example should be used in music theory classes to show what one can do in harmonizing.

      @@bugatti103 I guess it depends on where you live and what concerts are available there. I have been fortunate to live in a large metropolitan area with many concerts and therefore many works presented. Within that context "Dumky" is a well-known work.
      But I'm sure that outside an area with such an overflowing smorgasbord of available music, you are absolutely correct.

      @@horker_loaf9467 no, darling. I always see simpletons like you comment about how the piano part is the most difficult, simply because it has the most notes. You clearly have never even produced one (1) note on a bowed string instrument. Piano is by no means an easy instrument, but if you take into consideration how difficult it is to play in tune and how long it takes to develop good bowing technique for the average violinist or cellist, the only conclusion you can come to is that the string players often have it much harder than the pianist. I have nothing against you personally, but I’m quite fed up with misinformed people like yourself spreading misconceptions

      @@euomu Misinformed is a stretch. I have studied classical saxophone, cello, some viola, and piano for some years now. When I talk about the piano having the most difficult part I typically mean for sight reading. Having a piece like Brahms viola and horn trio to read for the first month or so is often harder for the pianist than the horn and viola part. Don’t call me a simpleton, do that to someone in real life and you’ll make a mistake you can’t take back. Just practice for not insulting somebody. Have a great one.
