Symphony no. 9 “From the New World” / Symphony no. 7

Album by Antonín Dvořák & London Philharmonic Orchestra & Charles Mackerras

This release is a recording of two symphonies by Czech composer Antonín Dvořák, originally composed in 1885 and 1893. Both works exemplify his late-Romantic orchestral idiom: the earlier Seventh is characterised by concentrated development, sombre sonorities and a compact architecture, while the later Ninth reflects his American experience through broadened orchestral colours and folk-influenced rhythms, together tracing a key arc in Dvořák's symphonic development.

First released: 1992
