Presto Music Classical Podcast, Episode 28: Karel Ančerl Live with Rob Cowan and Matouš Vlčinský

One of the most outstanding releases so far this year has been a remarkable collection of live recordings by the great Czech conductor Karel Ančerl, and I was delighted to be joined not only by regular guest Rob Cowan to discuss the set, but also by Matouš Vlčinský, who produced the set on Supraphon Records. The recordings, made between 1949 and 1968 show Ančerl's mastery in a wide variety of repertoire, and the numerous recordings of Czech music also gave us the opportunity to explore Bohemian musical culture.
