概要

TLDRDvořák's exceptional talent lay in his ability to create melodies that were both original and naturally resonating with listeners. His 'Gypsy Melodies' showcase this skill as he crafted new compositions rather than using existing folk tunes, capturing the essence of Romani music while also idealizing the gypsy aesthetic. This longing for freedom echoed the struggles of the Czech people under Austro-Hungarian rule, making gypsy music a symbol of liberty. The piece 'My Peace and Zaasmi Lasko's Knee' is the first in a set of seven, evoking themes of love, nationalism, and freedom. 'Songs My Mother Taught Me,' the fifth in the series, is particularly renowned, capturing the poignant tradition of passing down songs through generations, reflecting both joy and sorrow.
