Presented here is the third movement of Czech composer Antonín Dvořák's (1841-1904) 9th Symphony (Op. 95) as he arranged for piano duo. The symphony "from the New World" was composed in 1893 and was originally published as his 5th symphony. This symphony is commonly known as the "New World Symphony" due to the heavy influences from Native American and African-American music.

Wikipedia has the following information about this particular movement:

"The movement is a scherzo written in ternary form, with influences from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's "The Song of Hiawatha." The stirring rhythm of the first part is interrupted by a trio middle section. The first part is then repeated, followed by an echo in the coda of the first movement's main theme"

Duo Solot is the name used by pianists Stéphanie Salmin and Pierre Solot. Their first album was released in 2011 and features transcriptions of Rossini's music. In 2015 the duo released a second album which includes the recording featured in this video.
