Dvorak Bailey

Johannes Moser, Prague Philharmonia, Jakub Hrůša - Dvorak & Lalo: Cello Concertos (2015) Music

Posted by tirexiss at May 4, 2023

Oh, not another Dvořák Cello Concerto recording, you would be justified in asking. Well, yes and no. This is indeed a special one, but not only for the superb performance the German-Canadian cellist Johannes Moser gives with the Prague Philharmonia under Jakub Hrůša of this most popular of all cello concertos. What makes this disc practically indispensable is its inclusion of the less frequently heard Lalo concerto in the best account I have heard since Pierre Fournier recorded it many years ago with Jean Martinon and the Lamoureux Orchestra for DG.

Emil Viklicky Trio - Sinfonietta: The Janacek Of Jazz (2009) [Japan 2018] SACD ISO + DSD64 + Hi-Res FLAC Vinyl & HR

Posted by HDAtall at April 30, 2021

Leos Janácek (1854-1928) is considered to rank with Antonin Dvorak and Bedrich Smetana as one of the most important Czech composers. Janácek was inspired by Moravian and Slavic folk music, which he incorporated in a modern, highly original synthesis. His work attained its mature form first in the 1904 opera Jenufa (often called the 'Moravian national opera'), and later with the symphonic poem Sinfonietta, and other chamber works and operas. A century later, Chech pianist Emil Viklicky, like Janácek, has taken the music of his native Moravia and melded it into a larger mainstream, in this case American-style jazz. In fact, Emil has written jazz arrangements of several Janácek compositions, three of which are heard in this collection: the two previously mentioned and a third, 'In the Mists.' The other tracks are a combination of traditional Moravian folksong (re-worked into a jazz context) and Emil's own compositions.
