Largo printable sheet music for piano from Dvorak's "New World Symphony," free! This beautiful orchestral piece is also known, sometimes, as "Going Home," with sentimental lyrics that match the warmth of the melody.
I remember that in "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" Francie Nolan's beloved school music teacher won the hearts of his tough little immigrant students with the sheer joy and beauty of the music he shared with them and taught them to sing -- not until years later did Francie learn that the proper name of "Going Home" was really "Largo", from the New World Symphony.
Here is the printable piano music I have arranged for the Largo of The New World Symphony:

I gave this arrangement of Dvorak's Largo to a student who seemed sad recently. First, I told her what my piano teacher told me years and years ago about Dvorak - that he was in America, the "new world," and was homesick for his own country.
Suspecting that the solemness of the music might touch a chord with her, I played the whole piece. She looked me in the face and said, "I LOVE this song."
Two weeks later she had the music almost perfect. (And she was still saying, "I LOVE this song.) It was just right for her, having started Piano Adventures 2B not too long before.
It is interesting that this symphony written by a composer from Bohemia (now the Czech Republic) seems to capture the essence of America... some of the feeling of this particular melody can even be detected in Disney's "Pocohontas."
And here is a great American baritone, Lawrence Tibbett singing the song "Going Home" (mentioned by Francie Nolan in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn), based on the horn solo from this beautiful symphony:
