Music reviews of Dvorák: Serenades

Music Review: A Beautiful Delight
Rating: 5 Stars

On this CD is some of the most pleasant classical chamber music ever written. I find that of the hundreds of classical CDs I own, it is one of those I listen to the most. Though both pieces are good, the String Serenade in E is the real gem - it is surely one of the most melodic, charming, and delightful pieces for strings after Mozart's popular Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. The opening moderato movement will undoubtedly cheer you up, whatever your mood. If all you know of Dvorak is the "New World symphony, these wonderful chamber pieces are from a wholly different sound world. There is certainly none of the 9th symphony's pathos and grandeur here, just beautiful and charming melody, but without sinking into triviality and banality.

Chung and the Vienna Philharmonic establish the perfect tempos for these pieces, which lose something of their charm if played too slowly and lose their melodic spell if played too fast.
