In Prague will be presented the Prague Sinfonia
Prague - As an extension of the Prague Chamber Orchestra a new orchestra was created called Prague Sinfonia to play the symphonic repertoire with conductor.
The first performance in Prague will be presented on Sunday evening in the church of St. Simon and Juda. The orchestra will play with its conductor and artistic leader Christian Benda, informed Petra Tislová from the Prague Chamber Orchestra agency.
For the first time the new ensemble was presented on the 28th of October during the celebrations of foundation of Czechoslovakia the Czech National Day in New York. The Honorary President of the orchestra is Václav Havel, the former president of the Czech Republic who was present during this event said Tislová.
At that time the Prague Chamber Orchestra was on a US tour. In the USA were also present Václav Havel and his wife Dagmar. Havel had been invited by the Columbia University on a seven weeks working visit.
The first concert took place at the Bohemian National House in Manhattan.
The whole name of the orchestra using the heritage of the "Velvet Revolution" is Prague Sinfonia of the Velvet Revolution. |
