Antonín Dvořák

Music Appreciation

Born in the village of Nelahozeves, near Prague, on September 8, 1841, Antonín Dvořák was a Czech composer best known for his work, Symphony No 9 E minor "From the New World."

Dvořák learned to play the violin, when he was 6 years old, then was taught the organ, piano and music theory. At the age of 16, he moved to Prague and entered the organ school. Two years later, he joined Karel Komzák’s orchestra, which played in restaurants and balls, then the Provisional Theater Orchestra.

In his early 20s he began composing opus and symphonies. He left the Provisional Theater in 1871 to focus more on composing. After submitting 15 of his work for the Austrian State Prize for Compositions, he was awarded the prize in 1874, 1876 and 1877. Johannes Brahms, who's a leading member, and Eduard Hanslick made themselves known to Dvořák and referred him to their publisher, Nikolaus Simrock.

In 1884, the London Philharmonic Society commissioned Dvořák. His Symphony No. 7 was written for London was premiered at St. James's Hall on April 22, 1885.

The London Philharmonic Society commissioned Dvořák to conduct concerts in London, and his performances were well received there.[62] In response to the commission, Dvořák wrote his Symphony No. 7 and conducted the premiere of the symphony at St. James's Hall on 22 April 1885.

From 1892 to 1895, Dvořák was the director of the National Conservatory of Music in New York City. He was commissioned to write Symphony No. 9 "From the New World."
