COMPOSERS: Suk
LABELS: Naxos
WORKS: A Summer’s Tale; A Winter’s Tale
PERFORMER: Slovak RSO/Andrew Mogrelia
CATALOGUE NO: 8.553703
Suk's mature orchestral works are among the most richly imaginative in Czech music. Mogrelia is a passionate advocate for the superbly emotional and highly coloured Summer's Tale. Slightly more detachment and a bigger acoustic, however, would have greatly enhanced its stature. Jan Smaczny
