Which symphony is Dvořák's greatest? If you answer "the Ninth," fans of his Symphony No. 7 would beg to differ. Beautiful, bold colors stamp the Seventh, as well as exquisite melodies from the composer's beloved Bohemia. Fueled by gypsy-campfire dances and what might be the most thrilling final pages in all of classical music, this work is exhilarating—and it's perfectly matched with two more Eastern European beauties, by Janáček and Bartók.
