Antonin Dvorak - Symphony No. 9

Sound icon Real Audio - Symphony No. 9 - 2nd Movement
Although Dvorák based this movement on Longfellow's Hiawatha, the melody played by the English horn has become associated with the Negro spiritual, since it soon came to be sung as a sort of spiritual, "Goin' Home." This melody, as well as the striking series of opening chords, returns in the final movement, giving the piece a cyclic quality.
