Composed in 1904, Josef Suk's pasionate symphonic scherzo is presented for the first time in a moderately priced, authoratative score that will be a welcome addition to the libraries of performers and music enthusiasts everywhere. The Fantasticke Scherzo was one of the last of the works composed before the tragic hammer blows to fall upon him the following year, when his father-in-law Antonin Dvorak died followed soon thereafter by the death of his wife (Dvorak's daughter). Though generally a jubilant work, there is nevertheless a hint of autumnal melancholy present in the soaring cello theme.
