CD Reviews

A grand Victorian "masterpiece"

Joseph M. Kennedy | Wilmington, MA | 08/15/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Heinrich, a Czech (think Dvorak, Smetana, Vorisek) immigrant to America, composed one of the most glorious, heroic, romantic, swooping, sweetly harmonious, gorgeous, Newworld pieces of music ever created. It is unique and if you want something new in your life's experience, BUY THIS! There is no other recording of it.As for the Gottschalk, even better is the orchestral version on Vanguard 4051.If you love the romantic era of orchestral music, don't miss the Heinrich before you join the choir invisible."

John the 19th | Chicago, IL United States | 07/14/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"No matter, just buy it. Joe Kennedy's review is right on the money. Heinrich is the forgotten Beethoven of the Americas. Unlike the beloved Antonin Dvorak, Heinrich came to America and stayed. Now, every town in Bohemia has a street named Dvorak, and Heinrich is forgotten. We are truly a nation of cultural neanderthals.

I defy you to not enjoy this music!"
