CCMS – Subscription Series

Twenty-eight chamber programmes across five concert series, four Advent concerts, and one special evening offer a rich and varied line-up of leading Czech and internationally renowned performers. A central focus of the season’s programme is the legacy of Ludwig van Beethoven. Concertmaster Jan Fišer will present a complete cycle of Beethoven’s violin sonatas, while Evgeny Kissin has chosen the composer’s piano sonatas for his special evening. Other distinguished artists featured this season include Janine Jansen, Vincent Dubois, and Víkingur Ólafsson.

Just as the Czech Philharmonic has its artist-in-residence, chamber music is given a dramaturgical identity by the curator. This year the choice fell on the phenomenal German violinist Julia Fischer. In the first row of the Czech Chamber Music Society, she will perform with her ensemble as well as with the musicians of the Czech Philharmonic.

However, the second series of the CCMS will also feature lesser-known Czech natives such as Klement Slavický, Josef Bohuslav Foerster, Jiří Antonín Benda, Erwin Schulhoff, Rudolf Friml and Eduard Douša.
