Piano Suite in A major is one of the proofs of Dvorák’s penchant for the shorter, less serious form. In their melodic inventiveness, the five movements of the suite clearly show their affiliation to the group of American works (pentatonism, Aeolian seventh, the characteristic rhythm). The suite was created in 1894 and published immediately by Simrock in Berlin. The publication is part of the first Complete Edition of the Works of Antonín Dvorák. The Preface is written by Frantisek Bartos (Cz., Eng., Ger., Fr.).
