The Slavonic soul of Antonín Dvořák is undoubtedly present with violinist Thomas Albertus Irnberger in conjunction with PKF – Prague Philharmonia under the direction of Petr Altrichter. The violin concerto in a, op. 53, like the Mazurek, op. 49 and the Romance op. 11 for violin and orchestra exhibit many Bohemian folk dance and song references. The Sonatina in G, op. 100, written at the end of Dvorak's relocation to the “New World” exhibits Negro Spiritual as well as Irish and Scottish folk tune influences. The Slavonic Dance, op. 46/2 and the Humoresque, op. 101/7, appear here as well.
