Performer: Prague Philharmonic Choir

In expert hands, a terrifying 12-tone opera and a heroic piano concerto rattle the walls in Prague’s Rudolfinum.

Conducted by Sakari Oramo, the Czech Philharmonic turn in a brilliant performance of Mahler's Resurrection Symphony that lights all the old revolutionary fires.

Under the baton of Semyon Bychkov, the Czech Philharmonic and a sprawling supporting cast lead listeners up a stairway to heaven. 

One of Janáček’s greatest works, the Glagolitic Mass sets Old Church Slavonic in the composer’s inimitable melodic style. Organist Daniela Kosinová talks about this unique piece – and its fearsome organ solo.

The Choirmaster of the Prague Philharmonic Choir talks about the vibrancy of Czech choral repertoire, his love of Janáček and Martinů, and the choir’s upcoming performances around the world.
