Bohuslav Martinů
Bohuslav Martinů; December 8, 1890—August 28, 1959) was a Czech composer of modern classical music, who was educated in the classic romantic style and deliberately withdrew after the First World War from the previous generation of teachers. He went through a trial period of expressionism and constructivism, and became an admirer of the current technical developments (orchestral sentences Half-time, La Bagarre) and jazz period as well (Kuchyňské revue (Kitchen Revue)). Of all of the post-war avant-garde styles, neo-classicism influenced him the most.
