Silent Night, Vivaldi's Winter and Christmas carols from across Europe in the Baroque Mirror Chapel of Prague's Klementinum.
The Mirror Chapel is part of the Klementinum complex and was built in the years 1722-1726. It takes its name from the number of mirrors used for decoration. The chapel, with its decorations and excellent acoustics, charmed even W. A. Mozart himself, who played the organ here.
