About

Talich conducts classic Czech works, including Talich's 1954 interpretation of Smetana's cantata Czech Song, on CD for the first time.

Talich's composer friends included Josef Suk and Vítězslav Novák: their pieces constituted a major portion of Talich's repertoire with the Czech Philharmonic. These are authentic interpretations of Suk's suite A Fairy Tale (1901) and Novák's Moravian-Slovak Suite (1903).

"Novák and Suk invested a tremendous amount of emotion into these pieces. Talich, who feels their works with them, invests the same into every performance. Each of Talich's performances is an attempt at uniqueness, literally inimitable." – Karel Šrom, 1943
