Producers Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross discuss Samuel Richardson's landmark novel Clarissa with Lucy Scott, who plays the part of Clarissa in the Naxos AudioBooks recording.

One of the best-loved composers of all time, Dvorák rose from rural origins to become not only a great but an influential composer. The first composer to put his native Bohemia on the musical map of the world, he was invited to do the same for America.

This portrait-in-sound follows a lovable and in many ways a very simple, man from hay cart to imperial palace, from tragic loss to heart-warming joy, to pigeon-raising and world celebrity.
