| | Composers continued to follow Dvorák's ideas by collecting the music, using previous collections made by ethnologists, and alluding to the culture of the Native American in symphonic and chamber music and opera. | | | Finally, composers began looking toward Anglo-American folk traditions, which was the final type of folk music briefly discussed by Dvorák as a basis for a national music. | | | Composers began to arrange negro spirituals in a new way, which was similar to European classical music. |

| | The concert will present just a fraction of the beautiful music of countless female musicians and composers who, due to the social pressures of their times, were expected to give up any notion of a musical career, Held said. | | | Held said she plans to present a program of women composers every year, preferably in March, to celebrate the rich history of women and in some way let this wonderful music be heard. | | | They go on to state that it is not because of an absence of women in the musical past, rather that historians have tended to exclude them. |
