Czech Masterpieces and More Great Music From Denmark
Tom McKinney showcases the best performances from the UK and beyond, featuring Smetana's autobiographical first String Quartet and Dvorak's Cello Concerto
In today's programme Tom McKinney celebrates Czech composers Dvorak and Smetana, featuring Smetana's autobiographical string quartet 'From My Life', in which he charts the painful onset of deafness.
Dvorak's Cello Concerto is the centrepiece of today's Classical Live, one of the greatest and most difficult concerti ever written for the instrument. That work rounds off our musical journey around Denmark, in particular the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, the principle broadcasting orchestra of Danish Public Radio, with a performance provided for us especially by the European Broadcasting Union.
