Dvořák's Humoresque No. 7 in G-flat major, Op. 101 (1894) is the most famous of his eight Humoresques for solo piano, written during his time in the United States. Its graceful, song-like melody became a beloved staple of violin and piano recitals worldwide and was famously set to humorous parody lyrics in popular culture.

"Songs My Mother Taught Me" (Als die alte Mutter) is the fourth song from Dvořák's Gypsy Songs, Op. 55 (1880), a cycle of seven songs with texts by Adolf Heyduk. It is one of Dvořák's most tender and internationally beloved vocal works, drawing on Czech and Romani folk influences.

Antonín Dvořák's Symphony No. 9 "From the New World" (1893), composed during his time as director of the National Conservatory of Music in New York, draws inspiration from Native American and African-American musical traditions. The dramatic fourth movement builds upon themes introduced earlier in the symphony, culminating in a triumphant recapitulation that has made it one of the most beloved symphonic finales in the repertoire.
