Julian Lloyd Webber (cello)About
In the early 1980s Tony Palmer visited Prague looking for books about Dvorák, at the time Czechoslovakia's most famous composer, surprisingly there were none. In September 1988 he filmed a new recording of the Cello Concerto in Prague, with the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the great Czech maestro Václav Neumann, the soloist was Julian Lloyd-Webber, already making a reputation as one of the leading British cellists of his generation. He went on to explore how this stunning piece of music came to existence.
‘Dvorák - In Love?’ was originally a co-production with Czechoslovak Television, but when they saw the finished film and its political content, in tears they explained why it could not be shown in Communist-ruled Czechoslovakia. Two years later the Russians were finally thrown out and this film was the very first documentary to be shown on the newly liberated Czech television.
