	Music of the Czech Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Music in the Czech Republic has roots both in high culture opera and symphony and in the folk musics of Bohemia and Moravia.
		The traditional music of the Czech Republic has been well-documented as a result of the work of composers like Leoš Janáček, Antonín Dvořák, Bedřich Smetana, and Bohuslav Martinů, who recorded and utilized national sounds in their compositions.
		Following the Communist takeover in 1948, Czech music was state-supported and sanitized into paeans of devotion to the ideals of socialism and the government.

	Ivan Moravec Plays Czech Music
		The Czech piano music tradition goes back to the [ninetheenth] century, when Bedrich Smetana (1824-1884) produced works for the instrument with a decidedly national feel about them, in keeping with the spirit of an era that saw the culmination of the Czechs’ National Revival and of their struggle for cultural emancipation.
		Smetana also takes credit for having created a Czech national music that is based upon the use of the national dance - the polka - and it might well be claimed that the characteristic rhythm of that dance finds its way in a variety of forms into almost all of the composer’s more substantial works.
		Despite the quantity and variety of music of which it is otherwise able to boast, after Vitézslav Novák’s beautiful Sonata eroica of 1900 the Czech piano repertoire was to be kept waiting for more than fifty years before it was supplemented with another two works of similarly great stature.
