Are "hits" a unique feature of modern pop music? Popular successes have much deeper roots in music history and encompass different genres and contexts. This also includes music that is made and passed on in a private setting or during street performances. The extraordinary popularity of certain compositions is evident from the widespread, copied and repeatedly re-issued scores. The numerous arrangements for other instruments also confirm the extent of the phenomenon. Following the success of the album Dvorak (LDV101) from 2022 and again in collaboration with Czech instrumental arranger Jiri Kabat, the Talich Quartet invites you on an irresistible danceable journey of discovery through the folk repertoire of Central Europe.
