Bach, Handel, Mozart and Puccini across the centuries — oboe, mezzo-soprano and organ in St. Nicholas Church on Old Town Square.
Soloists of the National Theatre and the State Opera perform a journey through the centuries — from Bach's festive cantata to Puccini's beloved arias.
St. Nicholas Church on the Old Town Square is renowned for its breathtaking Baroque interior and some of the finest acoustics in Prague — classical concerts beneath Asam's frescoes are a long and popular tradition here.
