About the concert
The mighty organ of St. Nicholas in the spotlight – famous concertos for organ and orchestra by Bach, Händel, Vivaldi and Mozart on Prague's Old Town Square.
Organist Michal Hanzal and the Camerata Pragensis Orchestra perform the most famous works for organ and orchestra – from Bach's iconic Toccata and Fugue to concertos by Händel and Vivaldi and Mozart's festive church sonata.
St. Nicholas Church on the Old Town Square, one of Prague's finest Baroque buildings, is famous for its excellent acoustics – and its long organ tradition makes it the natural home for a concert like this.
