This composer quoted the protest song "I was sewing millet" in his Piano Trio in G-minor inspired by the death of his daughter after moving to Sweden. His tone poems include Richard III and Hakon Jarl, while he honored the wedding of Emperor Franz Josef in his Triumphal Symphony. In the finale of his first string quartet the music abruptly stops before the violin plays a sustained tremolo symbolizing his deafness. Along with a string quartet subtitled "From My Life", he composed a work with a section inspired by an Amazon saved by Prince Ctirad, titled "Sarka", and that work's first movement is based on the Vysehrad Castle in Prague. For 10 points, name this Czech composer who included "Die Moldau" in his Ma Vlast.
