Symphony No. 6 in D Major, Op. 60. by Antonin Dvorák (1841-1904)

Four movements - the third and fourth movements are outstanding, especially the third which has some rather interesting progressions. The fourth movement has some complicated parts for young musicians, but they played superbly.

For lyrics of many international pieces - check out:

Historian seeks recognition for first English king https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9d07w50e15o Somewhere I have a list of Anglo-Saxon, Wessex and English kings. Well there is nothing new there. Parts of Britain experienced tribal rivalries/conflicts as well as invasions by the Romans, Vikings/Norsemen, Angles, Saxons and Jutes, then Normans, and various monarchs/emperors declared war on other monarchs/emperors. Seems that behavior has not ceased.
