Renowned bass-baritone Adam Plachetka celebrates the Year of Czech Music with an anthology of Czech Evening Songs by Antonín Dvořák, Bedrich Smetana, Zdeněk Fibich and Josef Suk. All based on love poems for Vítězslav Hálek’s Večerní písně (Evening Songs), these songs provide a panorama of great Czech music, also zooming in on lesser-known repertoire. Plachetka performs them together with pianist David Švec.

Bass-baritone Adam Plachetka frequents the world’s most prestigious opera houses, and is a Met regular, equally at home in dramatic and comic repertoire.  He says “I hope you will enjoy listening to this album as much as we enjoyed recording it. And I also hope, that next to the relatively well-known works of Dvořák and Smetana, the compositions by Fibich and Suk will get the spotlight they surely deserve.”
