Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra's DVORAK/JANACEK Nominated for a Grammy Award

The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra has been nominated for a 2015 Grammy Award for Best Orchestral Performance for its Dvorák/ Janácek release from Reference Recordings' FRESH! label.

This well-reviewed SACD features the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, led by Music Director Manfred Honeck, performing Dvo?ák's Symphony No. 8 and the symphonic suite from Jen?fa by Janá?ek. Recorded live in Heinz Hall, the Pittsburgh home of the symphony, the recording was released in July of this year. It was recorded and mastered by Soundmirror, whose outstanding orchestral, solo, opera and chamber recordings have received more than 70 Grammy nominations and awards. Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra recordings are made possible by a generous grant from BNY Mellon.

A Grammy is awarded by The Recording Academy's voting membership to honor excellence in the recording arts and sciences. It is a peer honor, awarded by and to artists and technical professionals for artistic or technical achievement, not sales or chart positions. The annual Grammy Awards presentation brings together thousands of creative and technical professionals in the recording industry from all over the world. The Grammy Awards ceremony is February 8, 2015.
