The flashy, up-beat nature of this piece makes it ideal as the closing item or encore in a short recital programme.  Played up to speed, Slavonic Dance Op. 46/3 requires accurate finger-work and smooth transitions between registers, as well as sensitivity to the relationship between the two parts - hence its classification as 'advanced intermediate'.  

Slavonic Dances Op 46, written in 1878, was something of a breakthrough work for Czech composer Antonin Dvorak, finally establishing his reputation well beyond his native land.  The dances are original melodies, inspired by, and drawing on, the character of traditional national dances, rather than works based on existing folk tunes, as was the fashion among composers at around that time.  These Slavonic Dances were originally written for piano 4 hands but, at his publisher’s request, Dvorak produced orchestrated versions shortly thereafter.  The pieces proved so popular that Dvorak composed a second set, Op. 72, in 1886.

Op. 46, No. 3 is in the form of the polka, a dance which originated in Bohemia.
