The first in a new cycle of Dvorák symphony recordings, Dvorák: Symphonies 5 & 6 is the second release from the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and its Chief Conductor and Artistic Advisor, Jaime Martín, on the MSO's own record label. Recorded in 2023 at Hamer Hall, Arts Centre Melbourne, these performances—under Concertmasters Dale Barltrop (Symphony No. 5) and Tair Khisambeev (Symphony No. 6)—were artistic highlights of the MSO's second season under Martín's baton. The artwork approach to the MSO's Dvorák cycle profiles iconic scenes from across Melbourne and the state of Victoria, beginning with the Twelve Apostles of the Great Ocean Road, a day trip from Hamer Hall.
