- Antonin Dvorak, generally known as the greatest Czech composer ever to have lived. In this video I have included excerpts from some of Dvorak's greatest masterpieces. Time limit restrictions on youtube have restricted me from included more pieces, like music from his operas, but I have tried to include as many pieces as possible! I really love Dvorak's music and would be very interested to hear your opinion of the pieces in this video, so please do leave comments.
Please do stay and watch the whole video, as many of my absolute favourite pieces by Dvorak are at the end, including the serenades, 8th symphony and the amazing tone poem "The Noon Witch".
Magnificent music from a pure genius,His music was never dull
This guy would send back any composer in Stone Age. He’s by far the greatest composer of all times. No one came close to him.
After hearing this i completly fell in love for this composer. Thank you very much!!
His ninth symphony is one of my favorite pieces for orchestra. And his violin and cello concertos are incredible as well.
Well, a very good selection, i think Dvorak is a genius, as Smetana was the first czech composer of world class, Dvorak brought the czech music to perfection...
By the way, i like very much Dvorak's cello concerto it's really epic...
I like Te Deum also. He wrote it before he came to America in 1892. It was written as anniversary of 400 years of discovery of America. The name is "American flag" but he didnt get the text of the music on time so he used the name Te deum. He his first made concert of Te deum in America. Also Rondo is good piece. He made the tour of Rondo bin czech cities before comming to America. I like Slavonic dances, Moravian duets, Bagatelles (Miniatures), Humoresque, Carnival overture, Cello concerto, Serenade for strings and others.
Wonderfull, I really love Dvorak's symphonies, and the other pieces you chose are awesome as well, great work!
Nice video! An emphasis on the dances. Missing Russalka, the Carnival ouverture, put in a romance and a variation, and most especially the String Quartet "American" Op. 96!!!
Interesting choice of the mouvement and bars of the Cello Concerto to show.
Good job! Dvorak rocks! ♥
Great selection of an amazing composer (easily my favorite). I was disappointing not to hear the middle selection of Humoresque since that is one of the most beautiful excepts of music ever written. That being said I love Dvorak's symphonies and I think it is great that you have some of the less popular.
yeah!!! i extremely love this video, i can't discribe how happy i am now. thanks for upload this. may be some in this will be in my serie
Amazing video Daniel, really, thanks for sharing. My favourite would probably be the slavonic dances, the violin concerto, symphony 7, 8 and 9, the cello concerto and The Noon Witch :-) but generally everything was much better than I'd expected. Once again, thanks for sharing!
Lity
Wonderful!
some of the finest string quartet literature is from the pen of Dvorak. How can that not be included?
You should check out my Czech Composers series! Part 7 is a 20-minute tribute to Dvorak, with familiar and perhaps also some unfamiliar works.
Hi, the piano and cello concertos are really cool, can you tell me the soloists who play them?
Antonín Dvořák: "I understand the language of birds." "The birds are the greatest masters," his family members say. They thought he put the songs of birds into his music..... Grandson Antonín Dvořák III. my father Otakar Dvořák told me about grandfather. Antonín Dvořák lived in Vysoká close to Prague. .He had the birds in garden and he was aware of every nest there. He planted some trees by himself, he had some animals including doves. He planted trees, potatos, he was proud of his little garden and little farm. that he created. He was very humble.....He used to play the card game Darda with his friends in the pub.....Antonín Dvorák woke up early in the morning in Vysoká and went for a walk....He started to compose early in the moring till the noon. According to his son Otakar, it was interesting that during composing they didnt hear one note of piano.....Antonín Dvořák as most of great composers heard the melodies in their head, According to Otakar he was able to write 60 pages of scores since the morning to the noon. He had great musical memory. Grandson Antonín Dvořák III showed the room in Vysoká where Antonín cmposed his music and little kitchen and bedrooms. In the room where he composed was piano. and table and grandson said I am not musically talented. I dont understand how my grandfather could write so much stuff on such little table, with the piano.. Grandson said People described him as person who behaved very naturally, he was goodhearted man without prejudices. Some describe him as little nervous, sometimes hurried person. (well its understndable, great masters may be hurried or nervous).. He was calm but he got also angry. His son Otakar could make him angry when he misbehaved as a kid. Antonín used to play bowling in Vysoká he invited his friends. It was in the documentary of 2018 about Antonín Dvořák and his grandson Antonín Dvořák and his family. His favorite food was boiled meat with saffron sauce. When Antonín Dvořák went o America to Iowa with his family, with wife and two of his kids, they met there lot of czech citizens living an hour from each other, and they met there the indians who were selling some herbals. Otakar asked them to make some indian dances. Antonín Dvořák was happy there.. It reminded him the village Vysoká, the nature. He wanted to make sure that his family will be close there. Because family and his nation was most imporant for him. When he first time traveled to America by steamship, he was walking the deck, during bad weather and wind people used to hide inside but he was outside and watching the waves of the ocean. As they said probably he was thinking of his new music, symphonies. He was impressed by New York city. He spoke well english. He knew well two foreign languages.
