The city of Prague was a cultural hotspot in the1920s and 30s. From 1918 to 1935 the country’spresident was the European-minded andremarkably liberal philosopher Tomáš Masaryk,and his successor Edvard Beneš was a kindredspirit. The three population groups, enrichedby emigrants from Russia, the Ukraine,Germanyand Austria, competed with one anotherbut also inspired each other.
This was the Prague in which the composers onthis CD were involved. In their music we hearthe old and the new, tradition and renewal, butabove all, imagination and talent.When the border between East and Westopened up in 1989, their music had hardlybeen heard in the West for some fifty years,having been suppressed first by the Nazis andthen by suffocating communist rule. With theexception of Ullmann, even today thesecomposers have hardly reached our concert halls.
