About this album

Karajan and the Berliner Philharmoniker give Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9, “From the New World”, a poised, authoritative reading that highlights both its lyric sweep and dramatic contrast. One of the most famous symphonies in the repertory, the work combines American impressions with Dvořák’s Czech melodic gift, opening with one of classical music’s most recognisable slow introductions and culminating in a finale of real momentum. This 1964 release pairs the composer’s Romantic warmth with the Berlin orchestra’s precision and Karajan’s broad, polished shaping, making it a benchmark interpretation of a symphony that became a staple of concert life worldwide.
