Baltimore Symphony Orchestra reviews

Antonin Dvořák didn’t exactly reinvent himself when he took up residence in New York as conservatory director in 1892, but his natural instinct for understanding audiences gave rise to a major change in style. Turning away from the complexity of his symphonic and chamber works of the 1880s and the more experimental treatment of style and form in his Eighth Symphony, he forged a language that has proved irresistible to audiences.
