Dvorak: Symphony No. 8 / Serebrier
Label: Warner Classics WCL Catalog: 2564628787 Format: CD Jose SerebrierComposed by: Dvorak, Antonin As part of his complete survey of Antonín Dvořák’s Symphonies, this fifth volume in the series finds the inimitable José Serebrier conducting the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra in a performance of the Eighth Symphony in G, op. 88, B163. Accompanying this lovely, mature and sometimes overlooked work in light of his hugely popular Symphony No. 9, “From the New World” is the composer’s 10-part orchestral miniatures work, “Legends”, op. 59, B122. Though Mr. Serebrier has previously recorded Symphonies 8 & 9, this series marks Mr. Serebrier’s first ever recordings of Symphonies Nos. 1–7, and follows on from his recordings of the Alexander Glazunov Symphonies and Concertos available as a box set from Warner Classics.
