Dvorak came to America in 1892 to become the head of the National Conservatory in New York City. He spent the summer of 1893 in Spillville Iowa, soaking up the sounds of America, which he captured in his "American" String Quartet. The quartet includes birdcalls and other particularly American sounds that he heard.
Our presentation of the Music Mountain 2014 series ends Monday evening, Dvorak on the program; Tuesday, Riccardo Muti conducts his CSO in Beethoven's "Triple Concerto", plus more on this week's "Evening Concert"s.
