The Symphony in D major, Op. 24, is the only work in this genre by the Bohemian-born composer Jan Václav Voříšek. It is a very early example of a Romantic symphony, although it could also be seen as a late example of a Classical work. It was written in 1821, when Voříšek was aged 30; he died young, at only 34. The dedication to Aloys von Fuchs was inscribed in the composer's own hand on 14 April 1823.〔Antony Hodgson, Liner notes from Unicorn recording: New Philharmonia Orchestra under Michael Bialoguski〕 It is scored for a standard classical orchestra typical of late Haydn or early Beethoven symphonies: 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani and strings.〔 Indeed, it has often been compared to early Beethoven, although it was written only six years before that master's death, 16 months after Voříšek. He was a friend of Schubert and may well have been influenced by that composer as well. The Symphony in D is Voříšek's most famous work, and is the first major Czech contribution to the 19th century symphonic literature.〔(Culture.catch.com )〕 The movements are: * ''Allegro con brio'' * ''Andante'' * Scherzo: ''Allegro ma non troppo'' * Finale: ''Allegro con brio''.〔(IMSLP )〕 ==Recordings== The Symphony in D has been recorded by: * Czech National Symphony Orchestra under Paul Freeman * Czech Philharmonic under Karel Ančerl * Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie under Thomas Hengelbrock * New Philharmonia Orchestra under Michael Bialoguski * Prague Philharmonia under Jiří Bělohlávek * Scottish Chamber Orchestra under Sir Charles Mackerras * West German Sinfonia Orchestra under Dirk Joeres. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Symphony in D (Voříšek)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
