* Music to the Largo of the Symphony "From the New World": Antonin Dvorak
Producer's Note:
The story is told that Dvorak first heard this tune sung by the slaves during his trip to America. He then returned to Czechoslovakia and composed the New World Symphony, which included this melody, as part of his impressions of the 'New World.'
This version of "Going Home" is sung by the Brigham Young University (BYU) Men's Chorus. It is one of the selections on their CD titled "The Road Home" and the CD can be purchased through the university at:
