The Best New World Symphony
J. F. Haight | Brunswick Md USA | 10/15/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Vaclav Talich met Dvorak as a young man. That does not automatically make one the best interpreter, but Talich's 1954 recording of the New World Symphony invokes neither " homesickness", nor the usual pastiche of American scenes. It is characterized by clear motivic development and an edge-of-your-seat growing inner tension, which captures the real nature of Dvorak's powerful intervention into the United States.



Every recording I heave heard of a Dvorak piece by Talich has been the best performance of that work, though the 1930's ones are of poor recording quality. However his Mozart and Bach also shine. He has very few recordings though, because of what first the Nazis, then the Communists did to him."
