Description:
Poem, composed in 1893, is undoubtedly the best-known work by the Czech composer Zdeněk Fibich. This theme originally comes from the incidental music for the theatrical trilogy *Hippodamia*. With its great melodic simplicity, it captivates with its deeply lyrical character and expressive gentleness. The melody unfolds with natural elegance and is carried by a sincere and delicate emotion. At times tinged with nostalgia, at others filled with hope, it invites listeners to dream and reflect inwardly. Its calm and warm atmosphere makes it a work that is particularly popular with audiences. Over time, *Poem* has become one of the emblems of Czech Romanticism. Its expressiveness and emotional intensity have earned it international recognition. More than a century after its creation, this musical piece still moves listeners with its timeless beauty.
