Jiří Bělohlávek was a leading interpreter of Czech music. He became chief conductor of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra in 1990, a role he would serve on two different occasions during a combined span of seven years. This release continues the series of Bělohlávek’s last recordings of Czech masterworks for Decca Classics before he passed away in 2017. It holds four of Leoš Janáček’s most notable works: Glagolitic Mass, Sinfonietta, Taras Bulba, and The Fiddler’s Child.
