Dvořák’s masterpiece. Popular classical music.

When you think of the New World Symphony and the Slavonic Dances, you think of the Czech composer Antonín Leopold Dvořák.

Among classical composers, Dvořák is as well-known as Beethoven or Mozart; in Japan, the viola solo from his String Quartet “American” and the second movement of the New World Symphony are cherished under the title “Home, Sweet Home,” and the fourth movement of the New World is so familiar that even those who don’t know the composer’s name recognize its melody.

He is celebrated as one of classical music’s foremost melody-makers.

Here, we introduce the appeal of Dvořák’s works alongside outstanding performances by musicians from around the world.
