 > The New York Choral Society (NYCS) will continue its 45th season with 
 > a celebration of the life and work of famed Czech composer Anton€n 
 > Dvorak on the 100th anniversary of his death.  The program spans the 
 > master's rich musical journey with famed as well as rarely heard 
 > pieces that span his professional oeuvre.  The 160-voice chorus, is 
 > joined by the NYCS Orchestra and soloists Marilyn Moore-Brown, Soprano 
 > and Eduardo Chama, Bass-Baritone.  Heirs of the White Mountain will be 
 > performed in the original Czech language. 
 > 
 > This concert features three symphonic choral works by Antonin Dvo€€k 
 > from three different periods in the composer's life: 
 > 
 > -The Heirs of the White Mountain (Dedicove Bile Hory).  This rarely 
 > performed gem captures personal, yet nationalistic, themes reflecting 
 > the emotions of a people in the throes of transition.  It is a musical 
 > translation of the trials and hopes of the Czech people in the 1870's 
 > as they faced their national crisis. 
 > 
 > -Mass in D.  This famed work was composed in 1887 and, in its lush 
 > lyricism, is a quintessential expression of Dvor€k's unique style. 
 > With its haunting beauty, this piece has been described as pastoral 
 > and powerful. 
 > 
 > -Te Deum.  In the 1890's, Dvor€k headed the National Conservatory of 
 > Music in New York City, signaling a shift of style.  In 1892, he 
 > composed his mature and magnificent Te Deum, which was premiered in 
 > Carnegie Hall under his direction.  We hope that this performance, 112 
 > years later, will be a musical and spiritual echo of that historic 
 > moment. 
 > 
 > Schedule and Tickets 
 >  "Dvorak, Echoes of a Century " will take place on Friday, March 12, 
 > 2004 at 8 p.m. in Carnegie Hall, 57th Street at Seventh Avenue, New 
 > York City. Tickets are available from the Carnegie Hall website 
 > (http://www.carnegiehall.org), at the Carnegie Hall Box Office or
