Czech-Out (Slavonic Dances)

Dvořák's Slavonic Dances made him world-famous overnight, and their colorful and ingenious use of a wide variety of Central European dances has kept them securely in the orchestral repertoire. In this concert, David Allen Wehr is joined by his longtime piano ensemble partner, Cynthia Raim (winner of the Three Rivers National Piano Competition), for a complete performance of the original piano duet version of this irresistible music.
