Yes it is
A few sites say that the Moldau is in a rondo-like form with eight sections. Another says it is in ternary form. I guess, then, it has no clear-cut form, but the fact that the main theme recurs gives more reason for it to be in rondo.

Bedrich Smetana.
A River
He wrote and composed the Moldau
the rivert
It's about the Vitava River, which runs through Bohemia.
Beethoven (1770-1827) continued writing music even though he went deaf in ~1808. Later on, the Czech composer Bedrich Smetana also went deaf, but he continued writing great pieces such as Die Moldau
The composed Bedřich Smetana wrote "Die Moldau," also known as "Vltava" in Czech. It is part of a larger orchestral work called "Má vlast," which translates to "My Homeland" in English. Smetana completed the work in 1874.
Theme from Bedrich Smetana's "The Moldau".
The Moldau is a beautiful piece of music which follows the Romantic form in that it is very expressive. Instead of being composed for the purpose of just 'entertainment', the Moldaupaints a picture, showing the journey of the nation's river as it winds through the Bohemian countryside (now Czechoslovakia). It was a nationalistic piece, highlighting the beauty of the river and the countryside, and nationalism was not generally reflected in musical compositions until the Romantic Era. The music gains intensity to reflect the journey of the river, beginning as a quiet stream up in the mountains, until it reaches the ocean, where the music deepens and broadens.
yes! "the title of the national anthem, HATIKVA, means "The Hope." It was written by Naftali Herz Imber (1856-1909), who moved to Palestine in 1882 from Galicia. The melody was arranged by Samuel Cohen, an immigrant from Moldavia, from a musical theme in Smetana's "Moldau" that is partly based on a Scandinavian folk song."
