Sejna's Slavonic Dances

This performance of Dvorak's Slavonic Dances has been cited as THE reference recording of this piece in many critic's reviews, and I can see why. Stylistically, it perfectly captures the fact that these are DANCES... they should (and do, here) express vigorous joy and lightness mixed with stateliness when called for. The recording was made in a reverberant space (I do not know where in Prague), and the spaciousness helps here. The Czech Philharmonic's brass section really shines under Sejna, much more so than in other recordings with the same band but different conductors. The remastering of this 1959 original recording has been done with great care. My only quibble (a very small one) is that the volume is quite loud compared to other recordings. I am quite happy with my purchase.
