Slánské jazzové dny
During the two days of the festival, the city becomes a music center and as such introduces its visitors to jazz as originally non-European genre, which, however, has conquered all major musical stages in the world since its inception. In Slaný, top Czech and foreign musicians introduce themselves to the audience. The festival is intended not only for fans of jazz art, but also for the general public. The festival begins with the opening of the gates of the Grand City Center and the chapel of the Museum of National History in Slaný. Then begins a show of concerts with quality jazz, blues, soul, funky and other similarly tuned music, which can inspire both professionals and the lay music public every year.

Struny podzimu
The Strings of Autumn were established in 1996 during the tenure of Czech President Václav Havel by the curators of music events at Prague Castle, Marek Vrabec and Martin Pechanec. In the first eight years of the festival’s existence in the castle itself, the Strings of Autumn were distinguished by original programming and exceptional concerts, such as Cecil Taylor’s recital, the Czech premiere of Michael Nyman, or Jan Garbarek’s concert with the Hilliard Ensemble.
The list of artists and projects, which the festival has introduced to the Czech Republic for the first time ever throughout its 21-year span, stands as a rare accomplishment: Brad Mehldau, Bobby McFerrin, Cecil Taylor, Gregory Porter, Cassandra Wilson, Gil Shaham, Daniel Hope, Ghostpoet, Young Fathers, Chris Thile, Jason Moran, and many others. The Strings of Autumn have also initiated new projects and productions, such as the opera Don Juan in Prague in co-production with the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the theatrical rendition of Schubert’s Winter Journey at the Barrandov studios, or the live performance of Zdeněk Liška’s music to the film Markéta Lazarová. The festival systematically introduces the leading composers of today to Prague – including the likes of Michael Nyman, Gavin Bryars, Steve Reich, David Lang, Julia Wolfe, or this year’s legendary Terry Riley. The Strings of Autumn initiate artistic encounters that can prove to be life-changing. One example among many is Gregory Porter’s acquaintance with the Czech Hammond keyboardist Ondřej Pivec, which launched their Grammy Award-winning collaboration.
Each year the festival treads the pioneering path to broader musical horizons. Every concert is a major event of its type and genre. The Strings of Autumn offer music that you will not hear anywhere else.

Svátky hudby v Praze
The Music Festival in Prague cycle, Václav Hudeček and his guests, presents one of the longest chamber music festivals held in the capital city of Prague. Its artistic guarantor and founder is an important Czech virtuoso, a legend of the Czech violin school, a pupil of David Oistrach, Václav Hudeček, who has been inviting not only renowned musicians to his concerts for almost 30 years,
but especially gives space to young talents, which underlines the uniqueness of this show
in the Prague cultural context.
At the beginning of her musical career, personalities such as the renowned mezzo-soprano Dagmar Pecková, who performed on leading European stages, cellist Jiří Bárta and horn player Radek Baborák, whose work includes the Berlin and Munich Philharmonic, were given the opportunity here in the past. In recent years, Václav Hudeček has introduced, among others, talented pianists Jaroslav Pěchočová and Lukáš Klánský, first ladies of the Czech harp Kateřina Englichová and Jana Boušková, holders of prestigious foreign awards, and young violinists Josef Špaček, Jan Mráček and Petr Matěják.
Since 2013, the festival has been developing cooperation with the Prague Conservatory with very positive responses from spectators. The most talented students in conjunction with renowned artists get the opportunity to perform in front of sold-out halls.
As part of the opening of the 21st year, the very successful Czech debut of the virtuoso Italian orchestra Interpreti Veneziani took place.
It is traditionally held under the auspices of the Speaker of the Senate of the Parliament of the Czech Republic, the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic, the Mayor of the City District of Prague 1, the Minister of Culture and the Mayor of Prague. of the city of Prague.
The most important mission is to support young budding artists by creating opportunities for their concert performances
in important concert centers of the Prague metropolis and also for contact and cooperation with already renowned personalities of the Czech music scene.
The music holidays also aim to enrich and make the cultural offer of the metropolis more attractive with a quality show in the field of chamber music.
with the participation of renowned artists from the Czech Republic and abroad.

Svatojakubské Audite Organum
In 1990, after the fall of the communist regime, when the minorities returned to Prague, the effort in their ranks was the uniqueness of the space and tradition of the Basilica of St. Jacob to preserve and develop. The then Provincial of Minorities, P. Oldřich Prachař, founded the "St. Jacob's Audite Organum" community. As an organist of the basilica, I have been involved in dramaturgy and organizing concerts since the beginning. I founded the International Organ Festival, Easter Concerts, Christmas Concerts and St. Jacob's Autumn. "St. Jacob's Audite Organum" is a community of my collaborators in organ music concerts. It also includes the Club of Friends of Audite Organum To support the organ in the Basilica of St. The Sancti Jacobi Organum Endowment Fund was established as a cultural monument.
