Two violins meet the great organ of St. Nicholas — baroque masterpieces and the world's favourite encores on Prague's Old Town Square.

Two solo violinists of the National Theatre in Prague and a professor of the Prague Conservatory perform music of the great baroque masters Bach and Händel, followed by famous encores by Mozart, Dvořák and Strauss: one hour of the most beloved classical melodies in one of Prague's most beautiful baroque churches.

St. Nicholas Church on the Old Town Square, built in 1732–1737 by the celebrated Prague Baroque architect Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer, is famous for some of the finest acoustics in Prague — and classical concerts here are a long and popular tradition.
