Virgo virginum præclara.
Mihi iam non sis amara:
Fac me tecum plangere.
Chosen virgins of virgins
With me be not bitter
Make me weep with you
I'm proud that I'm Czech...Antonin Dvorak was great composer with marvelous feeling for cast of musical instruments and this fact gives unmistakable and original sound of his music. Many present composers use similar cast of instruments, de facto combine instruments as Dvorak. During his life (but also earlier) Czech country was called "conservatory (academy of music) of Europe" and "every Czech is an musician".
Sorry, but my english is not so good...

Jsem hrdý, že jsem Čech..Antonín Dvořák byl fenomenální skladatel s ohromným citem pro nástrojové obsazení, řada dnešních skladatelů jej "vykrádá" a kombinuje jednotlivé nástroje jako on, což dodává hudbě nezaměnitelný zvuk..Tenkrát ještě platilo rčení - Co Čech, to muzikant a Čechy jsou konzervatoří Evropy...
