FROM AMERICA TO THE CZECH REPUBLIC

02/03/23, 19:00

The program of the concert is mainly based on the repertoire that the Brno Philharmonic, under the baton of the chief conductor, will present on its tour of the United States of America, which immediately precedes this concert.
One of the many goals that Dennis Russell Davies has set for his tenure as chief conductor at the Brno Philharmonic is to perform (and record) all of Antonín Dvořák's symphonies, of which he has chosen two from the composer's peak period for the 2022/2023 season: the Seventh (which will be performed in June 2023) and the Eighth.
