Background: Two of world's greatest musicians appear together - for the first time anywhere - on Toccata Classics, playing an hour of 'new' Dvorak. Josef Suk - the great-grandson of Antonín Dvorak - undertook these transcriptions of 30 Dvorak songs and turn them into exquisitely beautiful instrumental miniatures.

Josef Suk had Dvorak's own viola restored for the recording sessions, which took place in Prague at the beginning of September 2009.
