Antonín Dvořák was a famous composer from the Czech Republic, born in 1841. He loved music from a young age and began to play the violin and organ. Dvořák studied at a music school in Prague and became an important figure in classical music. His music often included elements of folk songs, which highlighted his love for his homeland’s culture.

One of Dvořák’s most well-known works is the “New World Symphony,” composed in 1893 while he was in America. This symphony was inspired by African American spirituals and Native American music, blending different cultures into a beautiful sound. Dvořák believed that music should express feelings and tell stories.

In addition to symphonies, he wrote operas, chamber music, and choral works. His compositions have become popular around the world, and he is celebrated for bringing a unique voice to classical music. Dvořák passed away in 1904, but his music continues to inspire musicians today.
