Largo (New World Symphony)

Antonín Dvořák

For clarinet and piano

Written in E♭ major, range B♭3 to A♭5

Evening over a wide, empty land: someone far from home hums a slow, quiet tune and thinks of the people waiting for them. Dvořák wrote it in America in 1893; his student William Arms Fisher later put words to it as the song “Goin’ Home”.
