Dvořák's Stabat Mater in Vienna in 1888: Presentation of an Unknown Letter from Antonín Dvořák to Alfred Littleton and Period Critical Reaction

Original language description

The present study aims to analyse the manifestations of the reception of the Viennese orchestral premiere of Dvořák&apos;s Stabat Mater held on 19 February 1888 under the baton of Hans Richter as part of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde concerts. It was the composer who mentioned its negative response in a hitherto unknown letter to Alfred Littleton dated 1 April 1888, which the National Museum managed to purchase for the collection of the Antonín Dvořák Museum in 2017. The first part of the text is devoted to this letter and to the problem of acquiring the composer&apos;s correspondence, which ends with a critical edition of the letter. The study also discusses other facts connected with the orchestral premiere of the work, such as the Czech-German polemic in the Olomouc press after the performance of Stabat Mater in Vienna or the successful Budapest performance of the work under the composer&apos;s baton shortly after the Vienna premiere on 28 March 1888.
