Description
Antonin Dvorak composed his Concerto in B minor between 1894 and 1895 during his obligation as professor at the New York Conservatory. Hanuš Wihan, cellist of the Bohemian String Quartet had already asked him some time before to compose a concerto for his instrument, but Dvo?ák initially was rather reluctant to this idea. There had been some good reason so far for Dvorak’s former restraint since the alleged difficulties to write for cello and orchestra did the round in composer’s circles. Johannes Brahms proved this when he praised his colleague and friend Dvorak after having read through the score: Why didn’t I know before how to write a cello concerto like this? If I had known I had written one myself long time ago.""
