Symphonies Nos. 7 & 8

Album by Antonín Dvořák & Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern & Pietari Inkinen

Symphonies Nos. 7 & 8 are orchestral works by Czech composer Antonín Dvořák, composed in 1884 and 1889 respectively. Both symphonies exemplify late-Romantic orchestral writing with folk-influenced melodies, expansive harmonies and vivid orchestration, and they occupy a significant place in Dvořák's output as large-scale statements that broadened his prominence beyond Bohemia.
