Club hosting foreign artists

This is one of the top ten jazz clubs in the Czech Republic. A revolutionary music and theater scene. A cultural monument, the oldest of its kind in Central Europe. And above all, a place where you will have an unforgettable musical experience amongst fantastic musicians, presidents, and other top public figures.

Since its foundation in 1957, the club has been the main home of jazz throughout the Czech Republic. But it did not achieve real world renown until after the Velvet Revolution, under the auspices of Pragokoncert Bohemia, a leading art agency, which made one of the three oldest Central European clubs world-class and introduced the club to an international audience and the art community.

The most recently added Rudolfinum hall was built between 1940 and 1942 under the project of architects Antonín Engel and Bohumír Kozák. This smaller concert hall, whose construction was carried out simultaneously with interventions in the adjacent Dvořák Hall, was decorated in a style inspired by Zítek’s and Schulz’s original designs, which makes it fit perfectly within the original concept of the building.

As incredible as it may seem, Club 007 Strahov is one of the longest running music clubs in Prague. And over the past few years, it’s been one of the most active as well, as far as concerts by artists from all over the world are concerned. It’s not unusual for music groups from the USA or western Europe to specifically request that their tour include a stop at the “007”.

The jewel of the Břevnov monastery is the Theresian Hall with a remarkable ceiling fresco by the Miracle of Blessed Vintir. The name was given to Maria Theresa when she visited the monastery in 1753. The hall stands out with its festive atmosphere and friendly acoustics. The windows offer a refreshing view of the monastery gardens, the rich decoration is a temptation for the eyes, but the earthy colors provide a feeling of comfort.

The Theresian Hall deserves the sound of chamber ensembles, especially the softness of wooden wind instruments or the soft color of the tones of the piano or its predecessors. The tranquility of the monastery and at the same time the pomp of Baroque construction enhances every moment spent here in a festive event.

After three years at the Občanská plovárna where it hosted prominent local as well as international jazz personalities including as part of the PRAGUE PROMS festival, the mobile jazz club has moved house to the CNSO studios in Hostivař.
The Czech National Symphony Orchestra Hostivař studios were set up in 2002 when the common space of the waterworks took on a new life as the Studio Gallery. The bottom part of the building has waited patiently until this year for a cinema space which has managed to tastefully preserve its 1980s décor.
During the spring of this year, the space transformed into a stylish jazz club boasting outstanding acoustics and oozing atmosphere. The direct linking up to production will make it possible to record concerts live, while a wide array of drinks will be available at its stylish bar decorated in end of the 20th century optimistic hues. The Loop Jazz Club is being resurrected, on this occasion at the “home” studios of the CNSO.
The grand launch is set for 1st July opening with the Jazz of the 60s concert, commemorating the modern big band era and being held as part of the PRAGUE PROMS international musical festival.
