With a two-year forced postponement, we will present a memorial concert to commemorate the 130th anniversary of the birth (which fell in 2020) of one of our most important composers, Bohuslav Martinů. The concert will feature a selection of his compositions, dedicated to the choir.

The concert will take place in the Liechtenstein Palace in Malá Strana, in the hall that bears the composer’s name.
