Dvorák wore his nation's heart on his sleeve, imbuing his music with Bohemian legends and the distinctive rhythms and intoxicating melodies of folk music. Two of his much-loved chamber works are performed by our fabulous Czech musicians. In the second part of the programme they are joined by our resident quartets to perform two Bohemian miniature masterpieces.
