4.0 out of 5 stars
What do you appreciate?, March 12, 2006
This review is from: Symphony 9 (Audio CD)
I once had "Antonin Dvorak New World Symphony" (catalog MH-2-8411) from the people at Classical Treasures, but needed another copy and could not find an exact copy of that release...
The sound quality is nothing special here, but this disc contains the best performance of the Slovinic Dance in C major op. 46 No. 1 that I've heard. Newer versions with superior sound quality are much slower in tempo. It's quite sad. The music itself is all good here and serves as a good reminder that sometimes the older recordings are worth looking into.
I gave this a four star rating for the mediocre sound quality and for the "Scherzo" in the New World Symphony no longer being on the album.
