Dvorak - New World Symphony [Vinyl LP] Details Format: LP, Vinyl, Album Catalogue Number: ACC40626 Barcode: 4260234833072 Genre: Classical / Romantic Label: Alpha Classics Originally Composed: 1893 Pressing: Vinyl LP Condition: New & Sealed Description Dvorak's Symphony No. 9 in E minor, "From the New World" is one of the most popular and frequently performed symphonies in the repertoire. Composed during Dvorak's time as director of the National Conservatory in New York, it draws on the spirit of American folk music and spirituals while remaining deeply rooted in the Czech composer's own melodic language. This recording features Jakub Hrusa conducting the Bamberger Symphoniker on Alpha Classics. The famous Largo second movement, with its cor anglais melody that became the song "Goin' Home," is one of the most recognisable passages in all orchestral music. The fiery first movement establishes the work's dramatic scope, while the scherzo and finale build to a thrilling conclusion that draws together themes from all four movements. Hrusa brings a fresh perspective to this familiar score, balancing Bohemian warmth with structural clarity. Tracklist Side A Symphony No. 9 in E minor, Op. 95: I.
