Dvorak

Carnival Overture
Dvorak Violin Concerto in A minor, B108
I - Allegro ma non troppo - Quasi moderato
II - Adagio ma non troppo
III - Finale (Allegro giocoso, ma non troppo)
Shostakovich Symphony No. 5 in D minor, Op. 47
I - Moderato
II - Allegretto
III - Largo
IV - Allegro non troppo


We open with two melodic and uplifting works, full of that uniquely Czech blend of exuberance and nostalgia which only Dvorak offers. By contrast Shostakovich’s fifth symphony is an emotional and powerful masterpiece, probably his most well-known symphony.
