About This Item
Thirty years after having recorded Dvorák's complete Symphonies on Chandos, the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and it's laureate conductor Neeme Järvi tackle another romantic Czech composer Julius Fucík, famous for his more than 400 polkas, marches, and waltzes, some of the best of which are featured here. Full of energetic, effervescent Bohemian cross-rhythms, tuneful brass melodies (often now associated with a circus atmosphere), but also more lyrical expressions, this album is a festival in itself.
