[CD-Audition Commentary]
This performance will be released on CD for the first time. Although Smytheczek is sometimes called the "Karajan of the Czech Republic," it resembles Toscanini and E. Clyber rather than Karajan, with its excellent progress, youthful enthusiasm, and tight facial expression. The sound recording is sufficiently vivid and recommended.
[Comments from CD-Audition Commentary]
This is a piece of Smytheczek with its flowing, large scale, and excellent Smytheczek characteristics. It is a relatively rare recording of Smytheczek's repertoire and is full of Seishin romance.
