Going Home - Paul Robeson video free download
Magnificent live rendition of the Antonín Leopold Dvořák adaptation - Going Home. From the live concert at Carnegie Hall in New York, 1958. I neglected to mention that the lyricist for this song was brilliant William Arms Fisher!

This is proof positive that a great man who experienced bad things at the hands of an ignorant society can love us all. He wrapped us in thrilling music and held his head up in a dignity that has not been recreated since his days on earth.9 years ago

No one seems to understand that this "song" is lifted from the second movement of Antonin Dvorak's Symphony from the New World which he wrote at the University of Iowa in the late 1890s. It's a beautiful piece full of native American melodies. Odd that it took a Czech to write it. One of his students put words to the music with Dvorak's approval.Related Videos
