Donald Macleod considers how Dvorak adapted to life in eclectic and chaotic New York.

Donald Macleod examines considers how the shy and home-loving Dvorak adapted to his new life as the director of the National Conservatory in eclectic and chaotic New York.

An exploration of the shy and home-loving Dvorak's arrival in eclectic and chaotic New York, where he went to take up his new position as director of the National Conservatory. The music includes Dvorak's American 'calling card' - his Scherzo capriccioso, his carnival-like Te Deum and a particular oddity - his cantata The American Flag, written to a fiercely patriotic text and rarely heard since its composition.
