Summary
This bewitching miniature, completed in 1877 when Dvořák was approaching full maturity (it comes between Symphonies 5 and 6), nevertheless has its origins four years earlier: its haunting main theme was borrowed from the slow movement of the early String Quartet in F minor of 1873. This theme is therefore the composer's earliest musical material that survives in the core concert repertoire.
