Many thanks to sydneygrew for the addition of an important choral piece by Novak-the Cantata "The Wedding Shift" of 1912-13, not, I think, on cd.

[TerraEpon]

If it's anything like Novak's The Storm, it should be most enjoyable (provided it's also decent sound quality....)

Zdenek Fibich's Cantata 'A springtime tale' or 'Jarni Romance' op. 23 is currently available for download in the Czech Musik Folder. However, the same Vajnar recording has been reissued by Supraphon on CD:

Thanks BC, I'll delete it.

[But it seems to have disappeared already]

Here are some more infos about Lidl's third Symphony . . .

Many thanks to member Sicmu for that information - I had thought it was a Scottish tune, but now I see it is something rather different.

I think the work by Ivo Blaha Cyclorama may actually be called Cet Amour for speaker, woodwind instruments and tape from 1975 - only from what I can see in his worklists!
thanks for all the downloads

Sorry about my post. I now know that the work by ivo Blaha is indeed Cyclorama  for Orchestra from 2005, so please delete if if you like!!

I have updated the download entries for Jiri Valek Symphony 14 (two pianos) and Kvech's Symphony. Both have re-uploaded files with the most accurate data I can provide.   Anything you downloading before Feb 12, 2012 is suspect.

Sorry for the confusion-- my source disk was labeled incorrectly, and Karl has confirmed the error..  Karl thanks all of you for bringing this to his attention-- he can now update HIS collection.

Concerning Kvěch's Symphony, it seems to be the Second (chronologically speaking). The First (1971) is for organ and orchestra, as well as the Fifth (Čtyři roční období, Four Seasons, 2001). The Second (1982) is in E flat as is this one. The so-called Third (1987) is for string quartet and orchestra. The so-called Fourth (1984) is in D. In addition, there is a sinfonietta for violin and string orchestre (Transformace, Transformation, 1976).

Can't quite make out the names of the performers as announced by the lady aanouncer of the Jirak Violin Sonata.
Please let me know what they are if you had better luck.
Thanks.

Thanks for uploading the Jirak Violin Sonata. I could not quite make out  the names of the performers as announced by the Czech radio lady. If you had better luck, please tell me who the performers are.
Thanks.

Thanks.

I already did so for myself quite a while ago, so here you are: it is played by Ivan Ženatý (violin) and Jaromír Klepáč (piano).

[Sydney Grew]

Many thanks for the Dobiáš! . . . Not quite in the style I was expecting, but most interesting.

[Holger]

I also think Dobiáš's Sonata is a very fine piece, powerful, remindable and very well composed. I don't think I gave it a listen before, so I also have to thank you for reminding me of the piece, Sydney!

Please: Does anybody know the orchestra/conductor of the First Symphony of Luboš Fišer?
Thanks!!
