The lilting, lyrically inclined Czech Suite is again affectionately played, with comfortably blended textures and never a hint of pushing too hard in the faster movements. The programme opens and closes with the most famous Slavonic Dances, the Op 46 No 1 not quite in the Kubelík or Šejna class but still full of beans, the Op 72 No 2, a true Allegretto grazioso, expressive but without the least hint of sentimentality. So, all in all, a pleasing and auspicious start to what I hope will prove a recommendable new cycle. We could certainly do with one.
