About this item
This arrangement is slightly abridged for difficulty but still contains all of the original themes from Dvorak's popular "New World" symphony. The key is a half-step higher (two sharps) to make it more suitable for younger players. Familiar tunes within the context of the slow tempo make this a superb work for teaching bow movement, phrasing and tone quality.

Composer
Antonin Dvorák (1841-1904)
Antonín Leopold Dvořák (September 8, 1841 – May 1, 1904) was a Czech composer of late Romantic music, who employed the idioms of the folk music of Moravia and his native Bohemia. Dvořák’s own style is sometimes called "romantic-classicist synthesis". His works include symphonic, choral and chamber music, concerti, operas and many of other orchestral and vocal-instrumental pieces. His best-known works include his New World Symphony, the Slavonic Dances, "American" String Quartet, the opera Rusalka, Cello Concerto in B minor and choral works Stabat Mater, Requiem, Op. 89 and Te Deum.
