Sinfonie Nr. 9 "Aus der neuen Welt"

Album by Antonín Dvořák & Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest & Antal Doráti

Symphony No. 9 in E minor, 'From the New World' (Sinfonie Nr. 9 'Aus der neuen Welt') is the ninth symphony by Czech composer Antonín Dvořák, composed in 1893 during his time in the United States. The work exemplifies Romantic symphonic writing, blending Dvořák's European orchestral idiom with influences he encountered in America, including folk-like melodies, distinctive rhythmic figures and expansive orchestral colours, and it marks the culmination of his American period and a significant contribution to late 19th-century symphonic music.
