�American Suite�, in A Major, Op. 98

�American Suite�, in A Major, Op. 98

Anton�n Dvo?�k

Known internationally for superior flute editions, Robert Stallman continues his considerable expansion of the flute repertoire with re-creations, or �new� works for flute by Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven, Chopin, Dvo?�k, and other great composers.Conceived originally as a work for solo piano, this arrangement of Dvo?�k�s Suite in A Major for flute and piano is based on both the piano and orchestra versions. It is one in a series of Stallman�s �new� works for flute. Dvo?�k composed the Suite in A Major in 1894, inspired by his happy and fruitful stay in the �New World� �a period that produced some of his greatest works, full of thematic freshness, raw energy and folk influences, both American and Old World Czech. The �New World� Symphony, Cello Concerto, �American� Quartet, String Quintet in E? Major, the Violin Sonatina and this A Major Suite are all cut from the same musical cloth�textured with his personal impressions of the Wild West�s fascinating Indian and Afro-American music, its God-fearing and friendly people, its vast open spaces and its awe-inspiring natural beauty.
