{"product_id":"099925403225","title":"Má vlast. Cyklus symfonických básní - CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eBedřich Smetana’s cycle of symphonic poems My Country was recorded live at the opening concert of the 2010 Prague Spring International Music Festival by the Prague Philharmonia under conductor Jakub Hrůša. Supraphon last recorded My Country in the euphoric year 1990, the first year of freedom, when Rafael Kubelík, aged 76 and returning from exile, stood before the Czech Philharmonic at the festival’s opening concert. Exactly 20 years later, the festival entrusted this honour to the 28-year-old Jakub Hrůša, who became, alongside Václav Neumann, the youngest conductor in the festival’s history to open the event. While respecting the long-established performance tradition, Hrůša focused on a careful and considered reading of the score. The energy, musical integrity and commitment of the Prague Philharmonia produced an exceptional and inspired recording of this symbol of Czech music. The smaller ensemble creates an unusually transparent sound for the delicate passages, while the dramatic intensity of Šárka sounds surprisingly powerful. The recording presents Smetana’s My Country as if heard for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Supraphon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54025627664731,"sku":"099925403225","price":32.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1787\/2513\/files\/0262327.jpg?v=1789065900","url":"https:\/\/czechmovie.com\/de\/products\/099925403225","provider":"czechmovie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
