The Welcome Arrival
View through CrossRef
New York-based philanthropist and entrepreneur Jeannette Thurber (1850–1946) founded the National Conservatory of Music in 1885 to provide a world-class but low-cost professional music education to students from across the United States. Though it progressed in fits and starts, the conservatory eventually earned a congressional charter in 1891, giving it a unique stature compared to national rivals. A year later, Thurber hired Antonín Dvořák, the famous Bohemian composer, to be its executive musical director—easily the highest-profile individual to hold the position. The US public expected Dvořák to transform the National Conservatory into the international powerhouse Thurber had always envisioned.
