An ensemble founded and renewed over a period of nearly 40 years has won numerous prizes and accolades for its performances and recordings of wide swathes of the repertoire. The focus here is appropriately on the Czech repertoire, though the group begins with one of Beethoven’s most stirring middle-period works for the medium.
