Dvorak,Antonin / Baltimore Symphony Orch / Alsop Symphony 6 / Scherzo Capriccioso / Notturno CD

Widely acclaimed for their Naxos recordings of Dvork's Symphonies Nos. 7 and 8 and No. 9 'From the New World' with the Symphonic Variations, Marin Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony here present his Symphony No. 6, which at once pays tribute to Dvork's mentor Brahms and to the rich folk music of his Bohemian homeland, together with one of his most successful works, the waltz-like Scherzo Capriccioso, and the Nocturne, an arrangement for string orchestra of the beautiful slow movement from his Fourth String Quartet.
