Karel Sejna was chief conductor of the Czech Philharmonic for only one season - 1949/50, between the tenures of the better-known Rafael
Kubelik and Karel Ancerl. He had been principal double-bass in the orchestra since 1921 under Vaclav Talich , who directly influenced the development of his musicality and his exceptionally keen ear. Jan Smaczny samples recent Supraphon reissues in which Karel Sejna conducts music by Smetana, Dvorak, Suk and Martinu. Producers Clive Portbury and Patrick Lambert E-MAIL: record.review@bbc.co.uk
