Antonín Dvořák - Serenade for Strings in E Major Op.22 (w/score)

[@patriciayeiser6405]

My favorite piece by Dvorak - the beginning just floats in seemingly from nowhere - and then the theme reappears in the last movement.

[@sandyrossow181]

[@zyahaoyustudio1532]

@@philmitchell91 then get the h*ell out our classical community, since you have a biased opinion. You didn't explain why the serenade was bad. Neither did you explain why j*stin b**bers music was better. I can explain why i like this serenade more than your pop composer: 1. The music is more rich in voices here. Many instruments produce a rich sound and harmonically they sound good together. There is harmony in what they are playing. They produce a sound together, and they express their feelings in their music. They don't just play, even though a biased person will say that it's just the vibrato. There is a difference between "vibrato" and "expressing feelings through music". 2. The piece is filled with unexpected twists, and interesting action following the immediate aftermath of the twist happening. Non-stop action, the piece is always moving. And because of the twists it's impossible to know what happens next, and terefore it's unpredictable. 3. Tension-release. The piece is filled with countless tensions and countless relieves. And although there are some rules for how classical composers compose, it's mostly free from there. And not to shame every popsong (and i say that as i almost shame eevery pop-song), but pop-songs are pretty predictable. Tension-relieves can usually be found in completely random songs to be the exact same. Tension-relief is very important to every musical piece, with some having more tension, and some having more relief. And although the Tensio n-relief pattern is posiible to crack here there is one interesting thing about the patterns. They exist in perfect, or rather, perfectly almost perfectly, harmony. And although that can probably be said about almost every musical piece in the world, in this serenade and in classical or at least m ore free music in general, the harmonies line up better. And lastly, my favourite movement is the last one. Especially the start. Oh and did I mention that I myself, commonly listen to pop-music and enjoy it. Let's see if YOU can come up with arguments that i can understand. Atrgument are all. If you actually came up with a good argument i might take my words back. But for now, i am waiting...

[@jbm71]

I find it interesting that in the repeated A section of the waltz (minuet) movement II, Dvorak used the key signature for F# minor (3 sharps), but the tonality is actually C# minor. He writes in lots of D# accidentals to bridge the gap between the key signature and the actual tonality. Does anyone know if there is a particular reason why he did that?

[@LinCalc]

I don't know if there is a reason or not. But I know what you mean and it makes it more confusing to play XD

[@davidyoung6331]

Not just the repeated "A" but both "A" section. I found it strange that Dvorak had "set" the key signature as F sharp minor but wrote it in C sharp minor. We will never know why.

[@nightshockplayz5894]

Hahaha let's go with the idea that accidentals look good in music! Just kidding, but sometimes if the composer modulates a lot between other keys, using a key signature in between can help not changing in the middle of the piece. In the car of this movement, there are A major parts that benefit from the 3 sharp key signature, so instead of just writing the D natural in those parts or changing the key, Dvorak opts to write in D#'s since for a strong player like myself, it is simpler to remember it when the accidental is there when the key is changing a lot (and it has a lot of accidentals). Regardless, I think the technique of using a key outside of the signature is something that composers like to do, including myself when I write music! So I don't think there really is a specific one reason it was done that way, but mainly just a personal preference of the performance.

[@th1nker21]

Also may have sth to do with the fact that C# is the 5th of F# ?

[@maximilianellis1311]

In the waltz there’s two main section (before the trio). The first section is mainly in C# minor, but then it goes to A major at the next part. My best guess is that he wanted it to be just one key signature for both and he preferred having sharps as accidentals instead of naturals.

...and this is one reason Antonin Dvorak is one of my favorite composers... ...and it is also why, as beautiful and popular as it is, I consider his Symphony No. 9 ("From the New World") to be one of his "minor" works. This entire composition is great, and I consider the second movement (4:27) to be almost unbearable in its beauty. (On a personal note: I teach at the Hogwarts of Music, in Boston, and have had the children and grandchildren of a few Big Names in Music as my students, privately, or in the classroom; the son of the conductor of this magnificent performance, Daniel Barenboim, was one of them.)

[@wyattwahlgren8883]

I wouldn't call his 9th symphony one of his "minor" works, but it definitely overshadows most of his other works (including his 8th symphony). Some of his other great works include his 8th symphony, this serenade (this is my first listening, but I can already tell its great), his requiem, his tone poems, his Slavonic Dances (especially the op. 42 ones) and much, much more.

Curious question. Look at measures 98 and 99 in the second movement. The Viola plays A flat to A natural. But in the cello, the a is flat in both measures. That is, in measure 99 the viola plays an A natural while the cello plays an A flat. I had not notice that before. Is it a mistake? I think so. I think that Dvorak would have intended the cellos to follow the example of the viola, for that chromatic movement is a common one in Dvorak. I wonder what conductors have done here? What does the cello parts show? What do the publishers think?
