Product Description

The last three symphonies of Czech composer Antonin Dvorak are his most popular. The final three have fared especially well on record. There have been fine recordings by such conductors as Bruno Walter, George Szell and Sir Colin Davis. This recording, part of the Decca Legends series, features Rafael Kubelik leading the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in the seventh and ninth symphonies of Dvorak. Kubelik was one of the great interpreters of European 19th-century repertoire, and his Dvor k recordings are among the best.
There's just the right balance of tenderness and muscle in these performances, which have been digitally re-mastered to the highest 21st-century standards. Kubelik gets a wonderfully warm, full-bodied string tone that blends with wind and brass playing that was simply the best of its time. The idyllic passages that lace this music sing with geniality, while the dramatic moments, like the Scherzo of the Ninth Symphony, are stunning.
