DVOŘÁK, A.: Symphony No. 9, "From the New World" (Direct-to-Disc Recording, 2023) (Bamberg Symphony, Hrůša) (3-LP set, 45 rpm)
Antonín Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9, ‘From the New World’ is celebrated as a universal masterpiece, connecting with audiences worldwide. Composed by a maestro from the ‘old world’ and premiered in the ‘new world’, this symphony has achieved widespread recognition. When performed by an orchestra rooted in Czech traditions and conducted by a Czech principal conductor, it delivers a truly extraordinary and unique musical experience. In April 2023, the Bamberg Symphony and Jakub Hrůša recorded this symphony using a special process known as direct-to-disc recording, in which a lacquer serves as the recording medium. The signal from three microphones was sent via an analogue mixing console directly to the cutting stylus, which carved the groove into the original at 45 revolutions per minute. The LPs in this box set are exact copies of the originals, of which, in reference to the year of the premiere at Carnegie Hall in New York, 1893 sets were pressed in a limited and numbered edition. Since this recording comes extremely close to a real concert experience, the box set also includes an ‘encore’ on a third LP, Dvořák’s Waltz, Op. 54 No. 1, commonly performed alongside the Ninth Symphony.
