An epic of Czech folk music performed by the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra.
This 1979 recording showcases Vaclav Neumann's interpretation of Smetana. Four pieces selected from "My Country" portray the Czech landscape and history through music. Neumann's conducting is a masterful performance that beautifully balances nationalism with universality.
