Josef Jan Kovařík (1870–1951) was a close friend and affiliate of the composer Antonín Dvořák. Kovařík, a Czech-American violinist, met Dvořák during his studies at the Prague Conservatory. He acted as the composer’s guide during the latter’s three-year stay in America. The bond of friendship that formed between them influenced Kovařík for the rest of his life... This book contains the unique memories of Dvořák’s American friend.
