Dvořák: Cello concerts

Programme – Antonín Dvořák: Concerto for Cello and Piano in A major, B. 10 – Antonín Dvořák: Concerto for Cello and Orchestra in B minor, Op. 104, B. 191

An utterly unique programme with respect to dramaturgy will feature the cellist Jiří Bárta and the pianist Terezie Fialová. On a single evening, both of the cello concertos by Antonín Dvořák will be heard. The works are separated by a full thirty years. We will be hearing the first, seldom played concerto in the composer’s original version with piano accompaniment, while the second work, the well known Cello Concerto in B Minor, will be heard in the version with Dvořák’s own piano reduction. This is a unique opportunity to compare two works in the same genre, one from the beginning of the composer’s artistic career and the other from his maturity.
