SOMMCD 236 - Timothy Robinson - Tenor, Graham Johnson - Piano, Delme String Quartet.
Dvorák never lost his love for his sister-in-law and this beautifully lyrical music, written in the heat of youthful passion, became an inspired source to which he kept returning in his later works.
Sung in impeccable Czech - a lovely recording in a very special category.
