Description:

Löckner did not leave any studio recordings of Dvořák symphonies. However, when he was a guest with the Yomiuri Symphony Orchestra in 1994, he performed Dvořák's symphonic variations together. The symphonic variation is a piece that cannot be heard in a performance. The performance is fragrant and full of nostalgia like Dvořák. The highlight is the Seventh Symphony, which Löckner interprets as a masterpiece in the lineage of the traditional German symphony. It is a truly Brahmsian Dvorak, with a warmth that soothes the listener's soul. His rhythmic sense was on full display in the scherzo, which led into a raging finale. The encore of the symphony is the Slavonic Dances, and in these moments, Löckner sings melancholy and melancholy, not even trying to hide his romantic side by stretching out his beautiful notes. Excellent recording. Tobu Land System
