Although Dvořák’s fame had been steadily growing since Brahms’s and Hanslick’s recommendations, the success of his Ninth Symphony – which followed immediately after the first performance (in Carnegie Hall in December 1893) – exceeded all expectations. Dvořák, who always worked with an audience in mind, was by this time director of the National Conservatory of Music in New York. After his arrival in the city (1892), he had tried to get the Americans to become more interested in their own folk music and was pleased when a student of his, Henry Thacker Burleigh, himself a son of free slaves, showed him a collection of transcriptions of melodies by Native Americans. Dvořák used Burleigh’s collection when he was asked to write a symphony, and although it is highly unlikely that Dvořák ever heard Native Americans in the flesh, his symphony clearly shows the influence of their music.
