After the success of his Slavonic Dances in 1878, Dvorák received a request for a string quartet in “Slavonic style.” In this piece, each of the four movements is informed by melodies and rhythms in the style of Czech folk dances and songs. Besides the first editions of the score and parts, all surviving autograph sources were consulted for this Henle Urtext edition.
