Paperbound. Henle Music Folios. Pages: Score = V and 20 * Vl Part = 4. Classical. Softcover. 24 pages. G. Henle #HN756. Published by G. Henle (HL.51480756). ISBN 9790201807560. UPC: 884088178697. 9.25x12.25x0.1 inches.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 and powerful melodies.
