It's known as his "Choral" Symphony, because the last movement uses a choir.
Dvorak's Ninth and New world symphonies are exactly the same. The "New World" bit is about describing the New World - America. There's no real material that's directly American. Dvorak had been living in America and wanted to write a music about that land. So he wrote this symphony, aiming to describe it as best he could. The slow movement incorporates a Nego spiritual called "Going Home", so there is some directly American material in this symphony.
