From My Life" and the Bohemian nationalist cycle Má Vlast.
This composer included "Innocence" and "Idyll" in his set of eight "Bagatelles and Impromptus." One of this man's works includes a section titled "From" his native land's "Meadows and Forests" and another depicting a retreat into the mountain Blaník after a battle at (*) Tábor. Towards the end of his first string quartet, the music breaks off and is replaced by a low tremolo and a long piercing note by the violin; that gesture represents this composer's hearing loss. A section of one of his works, based on the same folk tune as the Israeli national anthem, depicts the title river which runs through Prague, the Vltava or Moldau. For 10 points, name this composer of the string quartet "From My Life" and the Bohemian nationalist cycle Má Vlast.
This composer included "Innocence" and "Idyll" in his set of eight "Bagatelles and Impromptus."
