The reissue of the recordings made in 1978 and 1988 pays tribute to the unforgettable Czech
tenor Vilem Pribyl's superb performance of three extraordinary Czech song cycles. The artist
dazzled several generations of music-lovers in Bedrich Smetana's and Leos Janacek's operas.
His professional career was mainly connected with Brno, where he lived and worked for
three decades. Moreover, Pribyl performed as a guest at the National Theatre in Prague,
and he also impressed audiences in Edinburgh, London (Royal Opera House), as well as in
France, Italy and the USA. The three song cycles are deemed to be the best works in the
genre created by Smetana, Dvorak and Janacek. They are fundamentally different in terms
of inspiration. While in his short cycle Evening Songs Smetana sumps up his lifelong
endeavours and experiences, Dvorak's Biblical Songs represent the composer's intimate
prayer and thanksgiving. In The Diary of One Who Disappeared, Janacek' depicts the story
of a village boy who madly falls in love with a beautiful gypsy girl. The benchmark historical
albums are as enchanting today as they were decades ago.
BEDRICH SMETANA (1824–1884)
Evening Songs (1879)
Lyrics by Vítezslav Halek
1 Kdo v zlate struny zahrat zna He Who Can Play the Golden Strings
2 Nekamenujte proroky Stone Not the Prophets!
3 Mne zdalo se Once Dreamed
4 Hej, jaka radost v kole Once Joy When Dancing
5 Z svych písní trun si udelam I'll Build You a Throne from My Songs
ANTONiN DVORAK (1841–1904)
Biblical Songs, Op. 99 (B. 185, 1894)
7 Oblak a mrakota jest vukol neho Darkness and thunderclouds are round about Him
8 Skryse ma a paveza ma Ty jsi Lord my shield, my refuge and hope art Thou
9 Slys, ó Bože! Slys modlitbu mou Hear, oh hear my prayer, Lord my God
10 Hospodin jest muj pastyr Oh, my shepherd is the Lord
11 Bože! Písen novou zpívati budu Songs of gladness will I sing Thee
12 Slys, ó Bože, volaní me Hear, oh Lord, my bitter cry
13 Pri rekach babylonskych By the shore of the river Babylon
14 Popatriž na mne a smiluj se nade mnou Oh, Lord, have mercy and turn Thou Thy face to me
15 Pozdvihuji ocí svych k horam My eyes will I to the hills lift up
16 Zpívejte Hospodinu písen novou Oh, sing unto the Lord a joyful song
