Czech composer Bohuslav Martinu's emotionally powerful and devastatingly poignant Memorial to Lidice is one of three wartime works that serve both as commemorative monuments and deeply felt commentaries. Martinu wrote the works in reaction to significant events in Czechoslovakia in 1939, 1943, and 1945. This recording of all three works offers stunning sound and splendid performances by one of the world's finest orchestras. --David Vernier
