I love Smetana! Just what I needed right now.

I was introduced to his music on a trip to Prague and just fell in love with him. So beautiful!

have loved it for a long time, and Moldau played when I was in Prague for a short vacay, so HAD to go.

P.S. Want Moldau to be played @ my 'funeral,' if/when such occurs, as I live @ riverside now so rivers are significant to me.

My mom would often play it when I was a kid. When I play it now, 70 years later, I feel like her love is still alive and stronger than ever.

Thanks, Mom.
