From Vivaldi's Four Seasons to Gershwin's swing — a chamber orchestra journey between baroque and jazz in St. Nicholas Church on Prague's Old Town Square.
The National Chamber Orchestra with two acclaimed soloists — a violinist of the Prague Symphony Orchestra and the solo oboist of the National Theatre Orchestra — plays a programme that travels from Mozart and Vivaldi through Bach's double concerto to Gershwin's swing and famous film melodies.
St. Nicholas Church on the Old Town Square is famous for its breathtaking Baroque interior and some of the finest acoustics in Prague — classical concerts here are a long and popular tradition.
