10. Largo fromThe New World Symphony, Op. 95
Manage episode 266224583 series 2390520
One of the most favorite pieces of classical music is Antonín Dvorák's (1841-1904) New World Symphony, loosely based on spirituals and Native American (along with some Czech folk tunes from his native country). He wrote the piece shortly after arriving in America to serve as director of the National Conservatory of Music of America in New York in 1893. The symphony was premiered in Carnegie Hall in December of that year. The favorite movement of the symphony is the Largo slow movement, in no small way due to the words that William Arms Fisher, one of Dvořák’s students, appended to it in 1922. It is equally famous in its original form and wearing its :”new clothes”. This shows off many of the beautiful solo colors and soft sounds of the organ. (from 2019)
