Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, Talich Václav: Slavonic Dances - CD

Slavic Dances, (I. and II. series), op. 46 and 72 by Antonín Dvořák are a cycle of musical compositions based on one of the basic forms of folk music, the folk dance. It is a processing of melodic-harmonic and rhythmic patterns of the musical culture of Slavic nations. They exist in two types of performance, orchestral and piano. The orchestral form of the Slavonic Dances is an opus whose originality and conception opened the door for Dvořák to travel abroad and thus launched his world career.
