"I have just finished the 1st movement of the Cello Concerto! Don't be surprised, I was surprised myself (...) that I undertook such work," Dvořák writes from New York to his friend Alois Göbl in Bohemia. The new work surprised even Dvořák's composer friend Johannes Brahms, who is said to have declared: 'Why on earth did I not know that a man could write SUCH a concerto for cello? If I had only known, I would have written it long ago!" Dvořák's Cello Concerto will be performed by the excellent young cellist Vilém Vlček.
