[@oliviaanderson2377]

I have heard this music for 60+ years, but never played with such enthusiasm and passion! Thank for the JOY it brings me every time I hear it (frequently)!!!!

[@gyuribarta4749]

I watch this over and over again. There is something special in it. Perhaps the promise of Youth. Wonderful, devoted young faces and a really beutiful romantic music brought together by this wondeful maestro. I just love it. I think the excellent video recording is worthy of this wonderful piece of art! Thank you all, for causing pleasure to an ageing man! :)

[@ivanhajzin3852]

Je to překrásné, ale také je v tom cítit, s jakou láskou bratrskou se Slovinští umělci zhostili Antonína Dvořáka, cítím vděčnost a sounáležitost tak úžasného bratrského národa ze srdce děkuji

[@richardmartin6622]

Me too, another aging man

[@katrinat.3032]

@Gyumri Barta. I completely understand! Something about this conductor and these young people. I look at them and they probably don’t realize how richly they are living. I wouldn’t have either at that age! But they are just so talented, there’s just a certain chemistry here. ❤️

[@adinamamon8381]

And to an aging woman!

Maravilha, maravilha!! Orquestra notável, uma garotada com um talento incrível!! Parabéns ao maestro Becan que consegue tirar o melhor de todos. Hoje, com 75 anos, lembro dos meus 15-16 anos quando integrei uma banda sinfônica em minha cidade aqui no Brasil como pistonista, mas nunca chegamos perto do nível dessa garotada eslovena.

[@vima8680]

For me: this is real talent starting with the conductor, orchestra, individual musicians, photography. Beautiful!!!!

[@vima8680]

I forgot to mention the one thing that makes this TOTAL enjoyment, the audience! Very important!!

This music is international!!!

[@MyBeatriz77]

My grandparents were Czech and my father Viennese; such pieces make me feel like I'm nearly to them even if they're long dead.. Thanks Videos of music played by famous American orchestras are full of aging people; Polish, Czech and other European countries are full of young players, and they play wondeerfully, con gusto. My compliments!

Dvorak was a master of composition and orchestration. The Slavonic Dances are an excellent introduction to his talent. One of the first composers to really grab my attention more than a a few decades ago, and it was from this batch of dances, instantly and irresistibly appealing.
