Too few compositions from the German, Baroque composer, Johann Christoph Förster, have survived, but this lovely Concerto in Eb for Horn and Strings, in the Italian style, is to be enjoyed, and features the natural horn. The Italian Classical composer, Domenica Cimarosa, was a master of the Opera Buffa, and this mischief and wit is discernable in his Concerto for Two Flutes and Orchestra. The 19th century Czech Romantic composer, Antonin Dvorák, celebrated the folk melodies of his native Moravia and Bohemia, in the cultural celebration of National Romanticism in his “Czech Suite” Op.39.
