Dvořák: Symphonies Nos 6-9 (Remastered) [4-Album Set]

Newly Remastered 4 Album Set in Stereo & 5.1 Channel Surround Sound DSD – Celebrating 25 years of LSO Live and the Year of Czech Music 2024!

In 1924, the centenary of Bedřich Smetana’s birth was the impetus for establishing the tradition of the Year of Czech Music, commemorated every ten years since then. 2024 marks not only the 200th anniversary of Smetana’s birth, but also the 120th anniversary of Antonín Dvořák’s death and the 170th of Leoš Janáček’s birth. It also marks the 25th anniversary of LSO Live and its first recordings—the Ninth and Eighth Symphonies of Antonín Dvořák.

To celebrate these anniversaries, LSO Live decided to return to the original master tapes of its recordings of Dvořák, Smetana, and Janáček, to extract the highest-resolution audio available, and remaster these superb recordings using the latest technology.

The recordings in this 4 Album Set with over 4 Hours of Music were captured across various periods in the label’s history, but all are united in being recorded using the latest high-density recording technology of the time. Available from NativeDSD in Stereo & 5 Channel Surround Sound DSD 256, DSD 128, DSD 64 plus Stereo DSD 512.

Being at the forefront of digital recording and other new technologies is something that LSO Live has always held as a core part of its vision. With a growing catalogue of audio and audio-visual recordings, the label has enabled the London Symphony Orchestra to extend its reach far beyond the concert hall, and to share its performances with millions of people around the world every month.

Here’s to the next 25 years!
