Dvořák: Requiem, Biblical Songs, Te Deum
Before he passed away in 2017, Czech conductor Jiří Bělohlávek made a series of recordings of music from his homeland, with the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Dvořák’s Biblical Songs Op. 99 conclude that series of recordings. Alongside this rarity are the same composer’s Te Deum and Requiem, with fellow Czech conductor Jakub Hruša. They are joined by an impressive lineup of singers.
