Antonín Dvoráks piano works are generally overshadowed by his symphonies and chamber music works, especially since those from around 1880 are very much oriented around Schubert, Chopin and Schumann. The situation is different with Dvoráks later romantic tone poems, the Poetic Tone Pictures op. 85. Anyone in search of romantic piano poetry off the beaten track may find much pleasure in this, Dvoráks largest piano cycle from 1889, for example in the impressive piece At the Old Castle or in the lively Peasant Ballad.
The autograph and the first edition from the year of the works composition have been used by editor and Dvorák specialist Milan Pospíil as the basis of our Urtext edition.
