Now in its 31st year, the Czech National Symphony Orchestra is one of Europe’s top symphonic ensembles.
With a repertoire that regularly encompasses both classical and contemporary, the orchestra this month visits the region to present a programme featuring works by Copland (Appalachian Spring), Beethoven (Piano Concerto No5 ‘Emperor’) and Smetana (Vltava).
The concert concludes with Dvořák’s much-loved Symphony No8, a genial work packed with folk melodies and the sounds of the forest. The concert is conducted by Steven Mercurio (pictured).
