The works of the quintessentially Czech composer Anton+-¡n Dvor++­k are, above all, enjoyable and perennial favourites of the Romantic repertoire. This six-part series of concerts is performed by the Prague Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and the Prague Philharmonic Choir, with three leading Czech conductors on the podium: Petr Altrichter, Jir+-¡ Belohl++­vek, and Libor Pesek. Guest soloists include soprano Lucia Popp, alto Eva Randov++­, tenor Josef Protschka, bass Peter Mikulas, pianist Igor Ardasev, violinist Ivan Zenaty and cellist Mischa Maisky, who plays one of Dvor++­k's finest works, the Cello Concerto.
