Who was Antonín Dvořák, and why is his music a perfect fit for homeschool music appreciation?

In this Composer Spotlight episode of the Music in Our Homeschool podcast, Gena Mayo—homeschool mom of eight and veteran music educator—introduces you to the rich, emotional, and folk-inspired music of Czech composer Antonín Dvořák. Whether your kids are already fans of classical music or just getting started, Dvořák's melodies provide a fun and accessible way to learn music appreciation.

Gena shares the story of Dvořák’s humble beginnings in Bohemia, his rise to international fame with the help of Johannes Brahms, and his love for folk music and trains. You'll hear how he inspired American composers, brought national identity into classical music, and created unforgettable pieces like the New World Symphony, Song to the Moon, and his powerful Cello Concerto in B Minor.

You'll also hear fun facts about Dvořák’s life, ideas for hands-on homeschool activities (like drawing to music or dancing to his Slavonic Dances), and simple ways to integrate his music into your curriculum.

💡 Whether you’re looking to fulfill fine arts requirements or simply want to introduce your children to meaningful music, this episode is full of inspiring ideas to bring your homeschool to life through sound.
