Imagine going back in time to hear the music just as in Mozart's times. Spend an evening in the beautiful baroque interior of St. Francis of Assisi Church in the heart of Prague, listening to the city’s second oldest organ from 1702, played by Amadeus Mozart, Antonin Dvořak a.o., delicately restored to its original baroque tuning and sound. You will hear esteemed Czech musicians perform famous baroque pieces interleaved by other exquisite musical treasures. Usually three artists perform at the concerts – soloists of our prominent opera and orchestra bodies, pedagogues of the Academy of music and drama and Prague conservatory.

The church was a beautiful venue for the organ concert. The trio of performers were excellent! The church was very crowded and yet the audience was very reverent.

Nice combination of chamber orchestra music, vocal classical fragments (tenor and soprano) and church organ pieces.

Yesterday we attended a magnificent concert with Mezzosoprano Barbora de Nunes Cambria, flautist Zofie Vokalkova and organist Drahomira Matznetova. It was wonderful. The soprano has an extraordinary voice that fills the church. The atmosphere was warm and they played again after the applause. The church is also very beautiful. I recommend you.

All musicians were superb. Compositions were perfectly selected and matched the ambience of the church.

The church was spectacular and the concert was very nice. Perfect length at about an hour. Venue was cold, but that’s expected in an old church at night in December. Dress warmly!

Panis Angelicus was fabulous. It would have been better if the violin and soloist were on the stage instead of in the balcony where we couldn't see them even though our seats were good.

The concert was wonderful! A violinist and mezzo soprano performed, as well as the organist. What a treat!

This was really cool. 100% recommend if this is your first time in Prague. The performers are really talented and the venue is a very unique experience that you likely won’t find other places.

Building was gorgeous. Musicians (3, sproano, organist and violin) were playing in the veranda, so you couldn't see them, only hear them. Only after 30 minutes the soprano came down with the violinist. It started with Tocata and Fuge...and unfortunately not a very good rendition. It was alright, given the price point...you get what you pay for type deal. It was ok, but wouldn't repeat the experience.
