1. I believe the correct answer is Vltava.

 

The name of the river that Czech composer Bedřich Smetana depicted as it flows through the countryside is Vltava (also known as Die Moldau or The Moldau). The composition describes the course of the Vltava, starting from the two small springs, the Cold and Warm Vltava, to the unification of both streams into a single current.

The musical composition in which Czech composer Bedřich Smetana depicted the main bohemian river Vltava is called “Má vlast” (meaning "My homeland"). “Má vlast” is composition set of six symphonic poems and it is often presented as a single work in six movements, but the six movements were conceived as individual works.
