"I've just finished the first movement of a my Cello Concerto! Do not be amazed as I was (…) that I have decided to undertake such work", writes Dvořák from New York to his friend Alois Göbl in Bohemia. The work even surprised Dvořák's friend, the composer Johannes Brahms, who declared: "Why on earth did I not know that one could write a cello concerto LIKE THAT? If I had had any idea, I would have written one long ago!" We will hear Dvořák's Cello Concerto played by the outstanding young cellist Vilém Vlček.
The programme is based on a musical part but also on a spoken word that will be given in Czech language only. The programme will not be supplied with English subtitles.
