Description
Amongst a pantheon of great Czech composers it is Bedrich Smetana who is revered as the musical personification of his country's national spirit and the founder of its modern musical character. Composed after the onset of Smetana's incurable deafness,Ma vlast(My Fatherland) is an unprecedented cycle of six related symphonic poems that evoke ancient Czech legends and celebrate the majestic beauty of the country's landscapes. Acclaimed with 'unending storms of applause' at its 1882 premiere,Ma vlastreflects the unique characteristics that form the living heart and soul of the Czech nation.
