		Bohemian composers ^Votes:0 The composers of Bohemia Europe during the latter part of the 19th century, much like Europe in the late 20th century, was a complex place, in which there was sometimes a fine line between patriotic movements premised on the idea of the nation as a universal moral conception, and movements that were manipulated by the practitioners of British geopolitics, to the end of destabilizing strategically important regions. The purpose of this article is to call attention to a movement that represented a nationalism of the best sort, optimistic and morally uplifting. In the case of the land which today is called the Czech Republic, a "People's War" was waged in which the most powerful weapon was music.

		Classical composer biographies ^Votes:0 Composer biographies Disclaimer This document does not attempt to be a final word on anything. It has always been in a state of flux, and I expect it will continue to be so for a while to come. Some of my information is woefully inadequate (my entry for Schubert read famous song composer for an embarrassingly long time), and a good proportion of the rest is little more than (what I hope is at least reasonably informed) opinion. With the exception of entries provided solely to provide links to other pages, all entries are present because I know something about the composer in question and their works. If a composer is not on these pages, there’s a good chance that while I’ve probably heard of them, I haven’t actually heard any of their compositions. These pages are my own Read More Go to Site
