Symphony in E flat
(Op. posth.) played by the BBC Scottish Orchestra : conductor, Ian Whyte
Dvorak wrote nine symphonies in all, but owing to the fact that the first four remained unpublished, or were published posthumously, great confusion exists with regard to their numeration. Thus, the real .No. 5 has always been called No. 1, while the real No. 1, which you will hear this evening, was written in 1873, but had only one performance during the composer's life.
