I know that I have mentioned this a couple of times before, but this is really a solid piece of classical music that gets me through charting and is just really enjoyable

Dvořák is great, one of our best for sure. This piece depicting him seeing mighty America for the first time and then missing Czechia makes immigrants cry even today. Although I myself prefer Smetana out of our composers, namely his Vltava is my favorite piece of all. It's a river crossing our country, the music describes it's changing stages. Dvořák gets a bit too alternative for me, hard to explain. He was more modern and his music is not as classic as my brain appreciates. But still, this one is a masterpiece, he wrote his heart in it.
cool that's really interesting thanks for that. I'll have to check out Smetana.
FINALLY MY STUDIES PAID OFF!
😂😩
If I may recommend, always google the story and explanation of a classic piece. Next to some pretty kinky gossip (half of them had syphilis) you'll enjoy the story the author is trying to tell. Moonlight sonata makes me cry for example, Beethoven had broken heart and gave up on love. Tchaikovski was gay forced to marry and committed suicide later on, his art of fairy tales is like he was trying to live in it. Smetana was composing deaf and Dvořák was allegedly huge, huge fan of trains, to the point he was humiliating his son in law for no knowledge of what locomotive just passed by etc.
All musicians are freaks.
