The great 19th-century violinist Joseph Joachim provides a connection between Dvorák's Violin Concerto and that by his friend Brahms, having given invaluable advice to both composers regarding the works. Dvorák's Czech spirit is given extra weight through Brahms' influence, with Classical stature meeting eloquent Slavonic vitality to create a splendid masterpiece, performed here by Ruggiero Ricci in this acclaimed recording. The Piano Concerto is characteristic of the younger Dvorák.
