Welcome back to our second episode of Under the Sheets! This week’s hot gossip includes Antonín Dvořák and Franz Schubert. First up, we talk about Czech composer Dvorak’s time in the United States -- how he got there, what he did, how he totally didn’t understand racial inequality, or the importance of a good libretto to an opera. Dvorak didn’t quite “get” a lot of things, but he was a hero to the Czech people and he composed music that is really pretty. In the words of "Parks and Recreation's" Donna Meagle, “Mm [Dvorak]. You’re fine but you’re simple.”
Later, AliceAnn tells us about Schubert and his parties that he named after himself, Schubertiads, where all sorts of crazy and weird and probably awkward things happened. Schubert, the Little Mushroom of Our Hearts <3
