Because my husband was born and raised in his early years in Czechoslovakia, I have adopted Czech composers as important cultural figures for myself. None more so than Smetana, Dvořák and Janáček. I will leave Mahler out of the this discussion because it is difficult for me to think of him as Czech.<br /><br />Dvořák was very wise absorbing features of the folk music of Moravia and Bohemia in his own works. In fact if any composer wants to be loved and remembered in his homeland, “the fullest recreation of a national idiom" is the way to go. At least for his operas, choral music and chamber music. Perhaps being famous for a very impressive funeral mass for soloists, choir and orchestra was more surprising.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
