About the composition

The Rose (Růže, 1912), H 54, to words by Augustin Mužík, draws (not too explicit) comparison between a plucking of the flower in question with the “coming of age” of the protagonist's sweetheart. The recording of the composition was released for the first time by Naxos in 2015 (Martinů: Songs, Vol. 3 – The Rose; Jana Hrochová Wallingerová, Giorgio Koukl).
