"Over 75 minutes of the great Czech composer's most well-known works are represented here on Naxos, the budget classical CD leader. These are all modern, digital recordings taken from their catalog, not old vintage mono stuff. Here is the track listing:
1) Carnaval Overture (9:32)
2) Humoresque, op.101 no.7 (2:51)
3) Slavonic Dance, Op.46 no.1 (3:50)
4) Cello Concerto - Adagio ma non troppo (12:30)
5) Serenade for Strings - tempo di valse (7:16)
6) Symphony No.9 "From the New World" - Largo (12:04)
7) Slavonic Dance, Op.46 no.8 (4:40)
8) String Quartet No.12 "American" - Lento (7:43)
9) Slavonic Dance, Op.72, no.2 (5:34)
10) Symphony No.8 in G major - Allegro ma non troppo (9:55)
You will not be disappointed with these fine selections. I own well over 150 CDs from this Naxos label, they are all very good. You cannot go wrong with the quality, and by the way, the price is nice as well."
