Description:

100th anniversary of Neumann's birth Neumann's only "New World" on film. A masterful performance that looks up to the achievement of Neumann's last years! Neumann and the Czech Philharmonic made three studio recordings of the "New World Symphony", all of which are considered masterpieces, but this is a live recording of the 1993 commemorative concert. This is a live recording of the concert, which Neumann himself said, "I have never been so honored to be a part of anything. The CD recording was made by our company on the day of the concert, and the disc won the first Grand Prize of the "Professional Recording Awards" and has been listened to for a long time. The accompanying documentary includes valuable comments from Neumann himself and performers associated with him, as well as numerous rehearsal scenes of Mahler, Beethoven, Dvorak, and other works, making this another must-have for fans. [Performed by] Václav Neumann (conductor), Czech Philharmonic Orchestra Recorded: December 11, 2003 in Prague, Rudolfinum - "The New World" Symphony 100th Anniversary Concert Live
