Come start a breath-taking journey with the Czech romantic master Bedřich Smetana. Fascinated by the programmatic symphonic poem, first developed by Franz Liszt, Vtlana is the second movement from the six-movement cycle ’My Fatherland’, composed 1874-1879. Browse our sheet music and scores, and discover this magical work today.
The first four symphonic poems from My Fatherland were written independently, and it was only the final two which were written with the aim of forming a cycle. Vltava, The Moldau, is a musical portrayal of the largest Czech river. The work was completed within a month and was premiered on the 4th of April 1875.
“The composition depicts the course of Vltava, starting first with the two sources, the warm and the cool, followed by the union of the two streams; then Vltava flows in groves and meadows, through landscapes where happy festivals are being celebrated; a flock of fairies in the moonlight at night; castles, palaces and ruins tower proudly on the nearby rocks, Vltava swirls in the currents of St. John’s; it flows in a broad stream towards Prague. Vyšehrad appears, and Vltava finally disappears in the distance joining the majestic river Elbe.”
