Previously unreleased recordings by one of the great conductors of the 20th century.

Karel Ančerl was one of the most distinguished conductors in post-war Europe. A survivor of Nazi concentration camps, as well as the openly anti-Jewish policy of Communist Czechoslovakia. An artist who through his limitless patience and diligence transformed the Czech Philharmonic into a world-class orchestra and brought them to the most prominent concert venues all over the globe.

Recorded at Dvořák Hall of the Rudolfinum, Smetana Hall of the Municipal House and Studio 1 of the Prague Radio between years 1949 and 1968.
