Album Summary
Performer
Josef Suk (Violin)
Notes & Reviews:
On these 30-year-old recordings, the violin maestro Josef Suk, celebrating his 80th birthday this year, is backed by the two finest Czech orchestras. The album is abounding in the very qualities synonymous with Suk's illustrious name: the beautiful, mellow and cultivated tone of his Stradivarius, sparkling technique and depth of feeling. These pieces by Czech and foreign composers are as though tailored to Suk's virtuosity.
