Slovak Radio So/Slovak - Alexander Moyzes: Symphonies Nos. 1 and 2

Along with Sucho? and Cikker, Alexander Moyzes was one of the leading Slovak composers of his generation. His compositional style was inspired by the folk music and beautiful landscapes of his native land, but also took account of contemporary trends in European music after the First World War. These early symphonies, infused with Moyzes� masterful orchestration and control of counterpoint, signify a new period in 20th-century Slovak music.
