It's the actual 5th, not "From the New World."
Got three copies, this one on Chandos, one conducted by Kubelik, but my favorite performance is from Istvan Kertesz and the LSO.
Great thing about the Chandos label, a lot of great classical music that's outside the standard repertoire.

Follow Ups:
If you have a cd player seek out Libor Pesek conducting Czech Phil. on Virgin label. It's my favorite 5th.
. . . Dvorak's New World Symphony has found such an affectionate place in the hearts of music lovers the world over, that they simply refer to it as "Old Number 5". ;-)
BTW, I'm a big fan of the Chandos label too - but that's mainly because they continue to issue regular releases of MCh titles. Their album with John Wilson and the Sinfonia of London, "Hollywood Sound Stage", appeared on a couple of "Best of 2022" lists this past year.
...the Chandos recordings I have, two sets of Arnold Bax's tone poems, a couple of LPs with the compositions of Sir Charles Villiers Stanford, Respighi's Belkis, Queen of Sheba and that oddball Dvorak 5th (not New World) symphony.

Hi-rez downloads or something like that! I'm still working on LOL!
Hey Chris- don't come around here and flippantly toss those words out! We're in the dark ages here trying to do our best with outdated technology!

They're in stereo. There's a left channel and a right channel. Heh.

Of course, there were quad LP's too: 4Ch.
I take your point though: I should have referred to 5Ch in my other post, or (in some cases) 5.1Ch, rather than just the generic MCh. And my Dolby Atmos files play back as 5.1.4Ch, although, on some systems, they play back as 7.1.6Ch or 7.2.6Ch - I don't have room for those last two though! ;-)
...getting a realistic soundstage out of 2.0 is nothing short of artistry.

(That's of course within the limitations of each.) ;-)
...are the expense and inconvenience.
And Maggies. They throw a huge soundstage. Of course, it only took me about 8 years to get them positioned correctly :)

My wife's heard it, too. Got a good laff.
