Andante e Alla Marcia - AM82 | Music

Dvorak's Symphony No.4 (1874) was a pivotal work in the career of this famous Bohemian composer. In the work Dvorák is finally freed from the influence of other composers and succeeds in producing a work in his own unique style. The slow introduction of the second movement (Andante sostenuto e molto cantabile) however clearly showed the influence of Wagne'?s Tannhäuser, but the l'Alla Marcia du Scherzo is again typical Dvorák. You can also hear the obvious references to the traditional music of Bohemia which played an important part in late works of Dvorvák. A terrific classical work for your concert repertoire.
