Dvořák’s Stabat Mater stands as one of the towering monuments of choral music. There have been other great musical settings of da Todi’s poem, but Dvorak’s is by far the longest and most serious, set in 10 movements for a large orchestra, chorus and soloists.

Philip Glass : The American Four Seasons
Since its premiere in 2009 by Robert McDuffie and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, The American
Four Seasons has gained popularity in concert halls worldwide. The work is praised for its blend of Baroque forms with contemporary minimalism, making it both accessible and deeply
moving.
Beethoven's
'Eroica' Symphony
The "Eroica" Symphony redefined the symphony genre, expanding its length, complexity, and
emotional scope. It challenged listeners' expectations and established Beethoven as a revolutionary figure in music. The work's themes of heroism, struggle, and triumph resonate deeply, reflecting
both personal and universal experiences.
