Please join us on our journey to discover the Czech composer Antonín Dvořák. After Brahms helped him to launch his career, Dvořák influenced not only other Czech composers such as Janácek and Suk, but also American composers including Goldmark and Burleigh. We will explore the timeless beauty of Dvořák's music through selected works by these composers and others including Schubert, whom he greatly admired. Thank you for being part of the GVPCS family and sharing our mission to spread the joy and beauty of music!
The exquisite chamber music writing from these composers will leave you enchanted!
