Czech National Philharmonic
February 11 Tuesday at 7:30 pm
EJ THOMAS HALL
World-famous orchestra
Playing its first concert in January 1896 under the baton of Antonín Dvořák himself, the Czech National Philharmonic is one of the world’s oldest and finest. Still based in Rudolfinum’s Dvořák Hall in the heart of Prague, the orchestra champions Czech composers and the music of Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and Mahler, who in 1908 conducted it in the world première of his Symphony No. 7.
Watch the Czech National Philharmonic perform.

The Czech Philharmonic proudly represents the Czech Republic internationally as an esteemed and cherished cultural ambassador. Since its founding, the all-Czech orchestra has championed the music and composers of its homeland. Its past is inextricably woven to that of the Czech Republic, particularly through Bedřich Smetana’s Má vlast (My Homeland), considered by many to be the country’s unofficial national anthem.
