Tomáš Netopil, conductor

Elfrida Andree: Overture in g minor
W.A. Mozart: Piano Concerto No 22 in E flat major K. 482
Antonín Dvořak: Symphony No 7 in D minor Op. 70 B141

“Antonín Dvořák was a proud Bohemian. Highly erudite, extremely aware of his role as a Czech composer in the Austro Hungarian empire, he sought to continue the work of his elder compatriot, Bedřich Smetana, to create a thoroughly Bohemian music that was equal to the ruling Austro-Germans. On the score to his 7th symphony, Dvořák wrote that he was inspired to write the opening of the symphony after witnessing the arrival Czech compatriots returning home from Pest for political protests. One can immediately grasp the tension and the sense of revolution in the first and last movements as well as the bewitching beauty of the slow movements and a deeply felt pride in the Czech folk dance inspire Scherzo. It is a passionate work that fully embraces Czech natinalism, while remaining thoroughly steeped in a Wagnerian and Brahmsian harmonic world. The result is one of his greatest masterpieces.”
(Eugene Tzigane)

Produced by the Kuopio Symphony Orchestra
