Towering fanfares open Janáček’s Sinfonietta, an ode to the composer’s hometown of Brno in the now Czech Republic. It’s a portrait composed for a national celebration of Slavic culture, with Janáček’s love of musical tradition evident in dancing strings and celebratory brass. Sibelius’ Fifth Symphony concludes the program, a work infused with legend, which paints pictures of the magical forests of his native Finland.
