The Cedar Rapids Symphony under Richard Williams presented a two concert Czech Night at the Paramount Theatre. Bruno Belcik, a Czech violinist, made the American premiere of a Czech concerto, paired with Smetana and Dvorak works. Belcik delivered a solid businesslike performance, opening with a somber mood from the strings and moving into a bold solo with double stops.
The review praises the second movement scherzo for its vivacious, pizzicato passages and the adagio's reflective finish leading to a lively allegro. It lauds the soloist's showcase and orchestration, while the opening overture to Smetana's Bartered Bride pleases outdoors. Dvorak's D minor symphony is celebrated as equal to the New World, with Williams shaping an elegant, Czech-tinged performance.
