Concertos from the New World

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential recording
Dvorák's Cello Concerto is quite simply the finest piece ever composed for cello and orchestra. Yo-Yo Ma's first performance was hampered by a sluggish, boring accompaniment from Lorin Maazel and the Berlin Philharmonic. This live recording featuring the New York Philharmonic under Kurt Masur has all of the excitement lacking in that first version but plenty of poetry as well, amply evident in the both the songful slow movement and rapt final minutes of the finale. The coupling is uniquely apt: Herbert's is the very concerto that inspired Dvorák to compose his own. --David Hurwitz

Amazon.com
Dvorák got the idea for writing his Cello Concerto (surely the greatest work ever composed in that form) when he lived in New York and made the acquaintance of Victor Herbert, who was a virtuoso cellist and classical composer as well as a writer of operettas. The Herbert concerto is tuneful and well made, eminently worth owning, and a good disc companion for the greater concerto it inspired. Yo-Yo Ma plays both with vitality and subtlety. --Joe McLellan

Favored Recording of Cello Dvorak/Herbert.......2003-06-27

With its oblique and multilayered harmonizations, the Dvorak Concerto in B Minor features what the composer learned from Herbert, that it is possible and even lovely, to have this instrument sing from its high flying passages on the upper range. It also features an exquisite horn solo as well, with wonderful support from flute and wind section.

The later addition of the magnificent sixty measure coda was in honor of his sister-in-law Josefina.

Although there are other worthy recordings such as Rostropovich and Casals, this new recording with Masur leading the NY Phil is supreme. Ma is passionate and gives magnificent inflection on the opening scales in octaves ending the first movement with great fanfare.
