(And in passing, are we correct in using the terms "Czech" Conservatory and Philharmonic, given that Czechoslovakia did not exist until it was created out of Bohemia and Moravia after WW I, and the "Czech Republic" is an invention of the late '80s or early '90s? What were they called in Dvorák's lifetime?)

Dvorak was a Bohemian. The big conservatory was in Prague, also part of Bohemia. Most likely this would have been the seat of the major orchestra in the country as well, since it was a major European capitol.
