Dvorak: Symphonic Works - Symphonies, Symphonic Variations, Symphonic Poems, Concert Overtures

Czech Philharmonic Orchestra;
Neumann, Vaclav

SU 4090-2

Vaclav Neumann belonged to the Dvorak conductors whose interpretations only served the music without artificially charging it. Complex structures were worked out with finesse under his leadership. Now his recordings of the Dvorak symphonies from the 1970s are available in an attractive box. • Few other composers' music enjoys such enormous popularity and is as frequently performed on stages worldwide and recorded as that of Antonín Dvořák. And it is the symphonic works that are connected with his name most often. The new SUPRAPHON eight-disc box features several complete sets and encompasses Dvořák's most significant symphonic pieces. Alongside the Symphonic Poems and Concert Overtures, SUPRAPHON is releasing for the first time on CD Václav Neumann's sensitively remastered 1972-74 analogue recordings of the complete symphonies (until now, only the digital recordings from the 1980s had been released on CD). Václav Neumann linked up to the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra's bold Dvořák tradition in the wake of his illustrious predecessors Václav Talich and Karel Ančerl and developed it in sonic colourfulness and romantic sweep. Following two complete sets of chamber works (the Panocha Quartet etc. , SU 3815-2, SU 3921-2) and the complete essential piano pieces (Radoslav Kvapil, SU 4018-2), you can now add to your music library another of the "worlds" of Dvořák's amazing oeuvre, in a highly acclaimed interpretation with the seal of the Czech Dvořák tradition.
