– Zdenek Fibich was one of the more important Czech composers of the later Romantic era, displaying common cause with fellow countryman Antonin Dvorak and the Austro-German romantics. – His 2nd symphony is considered one of his best works, programmatic in style despite no explicit program. – Marek Stilec lead the Czech National Symphony Orchestra in this 2012 recording. – Mr. SWtilec’s concern for authenticity lead him back to the original scores for this recording.
