Weaving the colors and rhythms of folk music

Antonin Dvorák became an overnight sensation when he published his Slavonic Dances, original works written in the style of the songs and dances of his native Bohemia. Each dance captures an aspect of the flavorful character of Bohemian folk music, from its soulful melodies to its zesty rhythms. Weaving the colors and rhythms of folk music, George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra perform Slavonic Dances Op.46 and Op.72 on this recording.
