The London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Georg Schneevoigt : Sigurd Jorsalfar, Op. 56 (Grieg) — Prelude, In the King's Hall; Intermezzo, Borghild's Dream ; Homage March
The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Talich : From Bohemia's Woods and Fields (Ma Vlast-My Country) (Smetana)
Smetana (1824-1884) was the pioneer of Czech national music. His cycle of six symphonic poems collectively entitled 'My Country' is, as the title suggests, in praise of Bohemia.
'Bohemia's Woods and Fields' is the fourth symphonic poem of the cycle. The music sets out to describe a traveller's sensations on his arrival in the country. He meets a village maiden. At noon he rests in the woods, and then proceeds onwards until he comes to a village. A hymn reminds him of the piety of the peasants, and a jolly dance suggests their simple sense of fun.

Borodin's Nocturne forms the slow movement of the String Quartet No. 2 in D, which was composed in 18S8. The music is very sensuous and lyrical and its chief thense is reminiscent of one of the tunes in the Poiovtsian Dances from Prince Igor. The Nocturne is often played separately and is an example of a thoorughly beautiful and expressive Syrical movement.

One of the most interesting characteristics of Schumann's development as a composerwas his concentration upon one type of composition at a time. Up to the year of his marriage with Clara Wieck his energies were confined to piano music, then he devoted himself almost entirely to song writing, after which he turned to the orchestra, and finally to chamber music.
Schumann's dissatisfaction with the piano as an adequate means of expression dates from the year 1838 when he told Clara that ' the piano has become too limited for me. In the compositions I write now I hear many things I can hardly indicate. It is especially remarkable how my ideas are almost all canonic, and how I always discover the imitating voices later, often in inversion, in changed rhythms, etc.'
Schumann's finest chamber works were written during the year 1842. The first two Piano Trios in D minor and F came five years later. The F .major Trio has pace and ready melodic appeal, but does not show quite the spontaneity and the same high level of invention that characterise the composer's earlier chamber works.
