A River
It's about the Vitava River, which runs through Bohemia.
The Moldau is a beautiful piece of music which follows the Romantic form in that it is very expressive. Instead of being composed for the purpose of just 'entertainment', the Moldaupaints a picture, showing the journey of the nation's river as it winds through the Bohemian countryside (now Czechoslovakia). It was a nationalistic piece, highlighting the beauty of the river and the countryside, and nationalism was not generally reflected in musical compositions until the Romantic Era. The music gains intensity to reflect the journey of the river, beginning as a quiet stream up in the mountains, until it reaches the ocean, where the music deepens and broadens.
