| |  | Dvorak in America
Dvorak: | Symphony No. 9 in E minor, Op. 95 'From the New World' Te Deum, Op.103, B.176 String Quartet No. 12 in F major, Op. 96 'American' Sonatina for violin and piano in G major, Op. 100 String Quintet No. 3 in E flat major, Op. 97 'American' Waldesruhe (Silent woods) for cello and orchestra, Op. 68 No. 5 Rondo in G minor for cello & orchestra, Op. 94, B. 181 Humoresque in G flat major, Op. 101 No. 7 American Suite in A major, Op. 98a(b) Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104 |
The “From the New World” symphony, Cello Concerto in B minor, the “American” quartet... A title with such a selection could without the slightest exaggeration bear the designation “The Best of Dvorák”. It almost defies belief that all these compositions, which brought Dvorák world fame, were written within a mere three years (1892-95) during his sojourn in America. The music is extremely inspired and profound, perfectly built and immensely amiable for the listener – simply beautiful. It reflects the powerful new sources of inspiration Dvorák discovered in America, yet also echoes homesickness, missing the family and familiar landscape. Josef Suk, the Panocha Quartet, the Czech Philharmonic under Václav Neumann and Jirí Belohlávek – such names are a guarantee of a profound tradition of performing Dvorák’s music. Accordingly, these 3 CDs comprise the gems of the most international of Czech composers as interpreted by artists who further spread and are still spreading the fame of Dvorák’s music worldwide, from America to Japan. | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
