Czech Classical

Czech Classical music is a genre of classical music that originated in the Czech Republic in the 19th century. It is characterized by its use of folk elements, such as folk melodies, rhythms, and instrumentation, as well as its use of traditional forms, such as the symphony, concerto, and sonata. It is often considered to be a part of the larger Central European classical tradition, and is closely related to the music of other Central European countries, such as Austria, Hungary, and Poland. Notable Czech Classical composers include Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, and Leoš Janáček.
