Czech Republic - A Musical Journey - Naxos Deutschland

"The Places"
Our tour of the Czech Republic takes us through the countryside, following the River Vltava to Prague, the capital city, visiting some of the great buildings that lie on its course.

"The Music"
The music chosen for our tour starts with the first great Czech mationalist composer, Bedrich Smetana, who left a monument to his county in his cycle of orchestral pieces, Ma Vlast (My Country). The younger composer, Antonin Dvorak, established a still greater reputation in music that reflected his native Bohemia in all its variety.
