The Czech National Philharmonic Orchestra was founded immediately after the end of the Second World War, on 26 May 1945. During its development important personalities of the Czech and international music scene participated in its artistic formation. Let us mention, the conductors Otto Klemperer and Václav Neumann, the violinists Josef Suk and Gidon Kremer, and the cellist Pierre Fournier. Over the course of its existence, the Czech National Philharmonic Orchestra has developed an extremely extensive and varied repertoire. Focuses mainly on the great composers of world music of the 19th and 20th centuries, however, it also promotes contemporary Czech and world music, as evidenced by the performance of more than 250 new compositions.
Featured performances: Antonín Dvořák: Symphony No. 7 in D minor, Op. 70. Bedrich Smetana’s Overture to the Bartered Bride and Dvorak’s Violin Concerto in A Minor, Op. 53
“From blazing fortissimi to beautiful moments of calm, the orchestra showed off their undoubted skills in this deeply Czech music, written for a wider audience but clearly rooted in the national tradition. The symphony follows a path through dark moods, lyrical tenderness, funky rhythms and explosive outbursts, and I was very conscious of the sheer volume of sound that this orchestra could produce. The climaxes were phenomenal, and the final announcement of D Major after all the preceding minor mood was truly sensational. All the sections of the orchestra were superb, and Mr Mercurio’s extrovert style was great to watch. His flourish at the end and the 180° turn to face the audience was a masterpiece of flamboyance and went down very well! “ – Edinburgh Music Reviewřák.
