  1. Taras Bulba - Leoš Janácek
  2. Concerto for cello and orchestra No 1 in D H 196 - Bohuslav Martinu
  3. Jealousy (Zárlivost), overture for orchestra - Leoš Janácek
  4. Symphony No 8 in G Op 88 - Antonín Dvorák

Founded by Janácek in his home town, the Brno Philharmonic Orchestra has an unmatchable tradition in his music. His dramatic symphonic poem, based on an epic tale of Cossack adventure, was composed as the possibility of Czech independence grew closer. Martinu’s concerto, one of his best for any instrument, is built around the reflective slow movement. Jealousy was originally written as the dramatic overture to the opera Jenufa, and packs a high emotional charge into its short duration.

Dvorák's Eighth Symphony was composed at his house in the depths of rural Bohemia and is full of the spirit of Czech folksong and the countryside. Its four movements move between major and minor before building to an exuberant finale driven by whooping horn calls.
