Logo for Composer of the Week - Antonin Dvorak - Episode 3

Donald Macleod focuses on Dvorak's trip in the summer of 1893 with his family to the village of Spillville, Iowa where, in an idyllic setting, he became fascinated with Native American music. The programme includes pieces exploring the influence of Native American music in the composer's String Quintet in E flat, written for his children - and a mischievous tale of romance between a local Native American chief...and the composer's teenage daughter.
