Suk: Symphony In E Major (netopil)
Label: SUPRAPHON Catalog: SU3941 Format: CD Dvorak: In Nature's Realm Overture, Op. 91 Carnival Overture, Op. 92 Suk: Symphony in E major, Op. 14 Dvorák’s overtures In Nature’s Realm and Carnival, completed in 1892, need no introduction. The case, however, is different with Symphony in E major, which Suk began composing a mere five years later, as Dvorák’s pupil. The symphony is – notwithstanding the composer’s tender age, 23 – a manifestation of absolute artistic maturity and independence. In 1899 the work was premiered by the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Oskar Nedbal. |
