Janáček. Foerster. Mahler

Although it might seem that the peers Josef Bohuslav Foerster, born in Prague, and Leoš Janáček, born in Hukvaldy five years later, were friends or artistic partners, this is not the case. Rather, there was mutual respect between the composers. Like Janáček, Foerster came from a family of schoolteachers.
