Two Duets for Violin and Piano.
Bedrich Smetana, Ed. Milan Pospisil.

Series/Edition: Henle Music Folios.
Format: Softcover.

They are in a light style, intended more for use in the home than for concert performance. Thus Smetana described these two duets in which he memorialized his Bohemian homeland. It is a fact, though scarcely believable, that Smetana had by this time already been deaf for two years. The pieces were popular from the outset: Smetana was able to demand a high price for them, and even to play off several aspiring publishers against each other. The duets are not technically over-demanding, and attract by means of their joyful character andpowerful melodies.
