Czech composer, the son of a butcher and village innkeeper who was expected to take over the family trade, who instead became one of the most celebrated composers of his generation, championed early on by Brahms himself. He spent several years in the United States directing a New York conservatory, where he urged American composers to build a national style from the country's own folk and spiritual music rather than imitating Europe. His own Symphony No. 9, "From the New World," written during that stay and steeped in melodies he said were inspired by what he heard in America, became one of the most beloved symphonies ever composed, famously carried to the Moon by astronaut Neil Armstrong on the Apollo 11 mission.
Start with these
The easiest Dvořák on the shelf, in order. Nothing here is graded and nobody is ranked: the shelf simply puts the pieces that ask less of your hands before the ones that ask more.
How the reader works
Each score opens as engraved notation you can read from the stand, and it plays: hear the piece first, then slow it down and loop the bar that is not working. There is nothing to install and no account to make. When you want paper, print it.
Every file is MusicXML, so MuseScore, Sibelius, Finale and Dorico open them too.
Where to go next
If you are learning Dvořák rather than only reading, the scale pages cover fingering in every key, the chord pages spell out every chord, and the symbol dictionary explains any mark on the page you do not recognise.
