Discovery Orchestra Chat 159 – Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9 Mvt 1 Part 1
The first of 16 Discovery Orchestra Chats on Dvorak’s “New World Symphony”. This is the first of 4 Chats that will explore Movement 1.
Dvorak
The Sound of Silence
No, I’m not referring to the Simon & Garfunkle hit song from 1966, sometimes called Sounds of Silence which is actually the name of the album they released containing this…
I just listened to the first episode of this (Dvorak’s “New World” Symphony) and can’t believe how fortunate I was to run across this on Prime. I have heard Maull lecture many times before performances and now here he is right on my computer screen and with the clearest of visual aids. I promise if you listen to one of these you will understand a piece as never before. And, I have discovered from past experiences with his lectures that I always listen to any given piece with a greater connection. These “home” viewings of Maull’s lectures are such a gift! Highly recommended.
