Symphony No. 1 (Dvořák)
The Symphony No. 1 in C minor, B. 9, subtitled "The Bells of Zlonice" ((チェコ語:Zlonické zvony)), was composed by Antonín Dvořák during February and March of 1865. The work is written in the early Romantic style, and was inspired by the works of Ludwig van Beethoven and Felix Mendelssohn.〔Album notes (SU 3703-2 032), p. 4〕 It was the only one of his symphonies that Dvořák never heard performed or had a chance to revise. The work was lost shortly after its composition, and did not come to light until 1923, almost 20 years after the composer's death. It did not receive its first performance until 1936.
==History of the work==
Dvořák submitted the score for a competition in Germany, but never saw it again, and always believed it was destroyed or irretrievably lost. He later included the work in a list of early compositions he claimed to have destroyed.
However, in 1882, an unrelated person named Dr. Rudolf Dvořák, a 22-year-old Oriental scholar, came across the score in a second-hand bookshop in Leipzig, and bought it. At that time the composer Dvořák was not widely known; although he had written six symphonies, only one of them (No. 6) had been published and only three of them (Nos. 3, 5 and 6) had been performed. Rudolf Dvořák kept the score in his possession, telling nobody about it, not even the composer. He died 38 years later, in 1920, when it passed to his son. The son brought it to the attention of the musical world in 1923. Its authenticity was proven beyond doubt, but it did not receive its first performance until 4 October 1936 in Brno, and even then, in a somewhat edited form.〔 The orchestra was conducted by Milan Sachs,〔(Musical Times, November 1936 )〕〔(A. Peter Brown, ''The Second Golden Age of the Viennese Symphony'' )〕 who was a Czech but was most notable for his work in opera in Zagreb, Croatia (then part of Yugoslavia). Following the work's premiere, Hans Holländer wrote a review of the work. He noted that, although the writing was at times awkward, the orchestration was not. He noted that it seemed to be similar in style to Beethoven and Smetana.〔 It was not published until 1961, and was the last of Dvořák's symphonies to be either performed or published.〔 Unlike many other early compositions, Dvořák never had a chance to revise the symphony, and so it is "particularly interesting as a very early Dvoṝák orchestral score in pristine condition".〔John C. Yoell, compiler, ''Antonin Dvořák on Records'', Greenwood Press, New York, 1991, p. 17〕
