About

Dvořák’s gift for orchestration, harmonic treatment, and simple sincerity are apparent in his Requiem. The work feels much less liturgical than others of its genre, though it is still an uplifting expression of faith. Despite the fact that the work was written as a Requiem for England, Dvořák’s national feeling can still be easily heard, especially in the opening of the fugue which relates to a Czech hymn from the Gothic period. This work has been influential on many other composers after Dvořák. The opening motif has been quoted many times by Czech composers.
