We will also not overlook the Year of Czech Music, so we will hear Dvořák, Smetana, and Fibich. We can look forward to the first Czech appearance by Trio Zimbalist, an ensemble of Curtis Institute graduates
(including Josef Špaček, who is very familiar to audiences at the Rudolfinum). The concert under the patronage of this year’s curator Petr Popelka and Adam Plachetka’s recital promise to be special experiences. We will also hear the Czech Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra led by Czech Philharmonic concertmaster Jan Mráček. We will conclude the series by combining music with words: Kryštof Harant’s travelogue performed by Saša Rašilov and the ensemble Cappella Mariana.
