Booklet on the commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the death of Antonín Dvořák. Dvořák frequently employed rhythms and other aspects of the folk music of Moravia and his native Bohemia, following the Romantic-era nationalist example of his predecessor Bedřich Smetana. Dvořák’s style has been described as “the fullest recreation of a national idiom with that of the symphonic tradition, absorbing folk influences and finding effective ways of using them,” and he himself has been described as “arguably the most versatile… composer of his time”.
