Slavonic Dances

Hybrid Super Audio CD: Playable on all CD players.

Iván Fischer's idiomatic renditions of the complete Dvorák Slavonic Dances has been reviewed as one of the very best versions in recent years. Now these performances can be heard to even greater effect in magnificent six-channel SACD surround sound. As one SACD purchaser has already commented, "the Philips SACD of the Dvorák sounded sensational - smooth, warm, rich… a winner on all counts."

These original DSD recordings also convincingly demonstrate the unequalled depth and detail that DSD multi-channel recordings can offer. And in addition to surround sound, the disc features high-resolution SACD stereo, plus CD stereo (offering compatibility with all CD players).

Also available on Surround Sound SACD from Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra is his acclaimed coupling of Dvorák's Eighth and Ninth Symphonies (shortlisted for a 2002 Gramophone Award), available on SACD 470 617-2.
