The Symphony No. 9 in E minor, "From the New World", Op. 95, B. 178 (Czech: Symfonie č. 9 e moll "Z nového světa"), also known as the New World Symphony, was composed by Antonín Dvořák in 1893 while he was the director of the National Conservatory of Music of America from 1892 to 1895.
Dvořák composed his fourth symphony between January and March 1874. It shows an influence of Wagner in its themes' development, and even in its thematic material, i.e. principal theme of the second movement is a near-quotation from Tannhäuser, and the Trio section of the third movement includes a vivid reminder of a passage from the overture of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg.

The title is taken from the second movement of Antonín Dvořák's New World Symphony, and the project is considered "loosely inspired" by the symphony. [2] [4] The album has several interpretations of Dvorak's piece, performed by musicians such as The Chieftains and Garth Hudson.
His most famous pieces of music include the Ninth Symphony (From the New World), the Cello Concerto, the American String Quartet, the Slavonic Dances, and the opera Rusalka. This article constitutes a list of Dvořák's known works organized by their genre. They are in chronological order, referenced by Burghauser number.
Theme of the second movement Second movement, theme. The theme of the second movement (see above) is the one that interpreters have most tried to associate with a Negro spiritual or with an American Indian tune. [19] The simple melody, with the pulsing accompaniment in second violin and viola, does indeed recall spirituals or Indian ritual music.
