From Bohemia’s woods and meadows: Dvořák’s Sixth Symphony is part homage to Brahms, part celebration of the sounds of rural Bohemia, and all Dvořák. Certainly, few romantic symphonies manage to be so sunny at the same time as being quite so powerful, and under Thomas Dausgaard it’ll sound as fresh as new. It’s an exuberant finish to a programme that begins with Michael Tippett’s radiant vision of rebirth and renewal on a summer night, and a striking foil to Britten’s troubled Violin Concerto. Dating from 1939, this is music from an age of anxiety but Daniel Hope’s stellar technique and searching musical intelligence will bring out both its light and shade.
