Acerca de
Born March 2, 1824, in Litomyšl to the east of Prague, Bedřich Smetana was just four years old when he began learning the violin and piano under the tutelage of his father, a professional brewer who—despite being an avid music lover—did not wish to see his son pursue music as a career... But young Bedřich persisted and completed his studies in 1943, then began teaching music while continuing his studies with pianist Joseph Proksch. He performed as a pianist and conductor for many years but abandoned these careers in 1874 when he completely lost his hearing, dedicating himself entirely to composition. He passed away in Prague on May 12, 1884.
