The largest area of ​​the Municipal House is the central Smetana Hall, accessible from the foyer on the first floor. By naming the concert hall, Prague paid tribute to the creator of Czech modern music, Bedřich Smetana. Of the plastic decoration, the most remarkable are the stucco groups Vyšehrad and Slavonic Dances on the sides of the stage by Ladislav Šaloun. The sculptor thus happily solved the question of commemorating the second genius of Czech music, Antonín Dvořák. To Smetana's Vyšehrad from the cycle of symphonic poems My Homeland, the character of the legendary Lumír, accompanied by a harp, narrates the myth of the homeland, while the opposite dancing couple is a motif taken from Dvořák's Slavonic Dances. In the interior of the Smetana Hall, however, there is a reminder of other Czech composers, whose portrait medallions are located on the bust of the lodges and the balcony.

Paintings of the ceiling panels and wall paintings by Karel Špilar contribute to the overall airy and at the same time festive impression of the space. Especially the monumental murals Music, Poetry, Dance and Drama are among the author's best works ever.

Smetana's Hall is primarily a concert hall for 1,200 listeners, in which since its opening the world's most important ensembles and performers have performed, and occasionally various social events take place here - especially traditional balls or popular representative gala dinners. The Prague Spring music festival is regularly opened and closed in the Smetana Hall.

Reduta Jazz Club

Venues|Jazz

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.

Rock Café

Prague Prague

Venues|Hardcore|Indie|Metal|Pop|Punk|Rock|Singer / Songwriter

One of the oldest and best known music clubs in Prague, concerts daily

Cult considered pragues club Rock Cafe was from its beginning tightly bound with artist society called New Horizon. This voluntary association had been founded by Jaroslav Zajpt, acting like a chairman, followed by V.Chrenovsky, J.Rauser, R.Skokan, P.Zvolensky, J.Simecek, D.Sustr a J.Vondracek, who were members of coordination board. On the 5th of Janaury 1990 came out the statement of the society and on 22nd took place the general meeting wich set up New Horizon as legally registred agency. Its main goal have been to gather different sorts of artistsand provide them with manager and legal help. Last but not least it have also supported beginning artist groups and interpreters.
Among those related bands were groups like Ticha dohoda, Mercedes, Toyen, Jizní pol etc.
Sampler of the related bands was relased under patronage of New Horizon.
Author of the Rock Café logo – “The Angel of Rock”- is respected artist, Martin Palka, who cooperates for example with Rudoflinum gallery.
Nowadays Rock Café, still owned by New Horizon ltd.,(contemporary company owners are Pavel Svoboda and ing.Michal Panek), one of the most significant and crowded clubs in Prague. Its advantages are placement in the city centre (Narodní 20, 110 00 Praha 1) and its ability to support different kinds of artist events.
Like many pragues clubs Rock Cafe have been recently dealing with the noise problems and therefore all shows had to end before 10 p.m. Nontheless all adjustments of the basement of the clubs are done by now, thanks to the kindness and financial support of the local authority of Prague 1. The reconstruction intoduced the brand new music stage, basement of the club and recently bulit gallery.
The reconsturction brought many inprovements from wich benefits the bands along with the visitors of the club. Most of them will aprecciate not only extended hours, but also the new sound and lighting system, powerful air condition system and original design of the new interior. The new bar right at the auditorium and in the chill out zone, where projections of the shows in progress are possible, also conturbitues to satisfaction of the guests. Another advantege is also the enlarged capacity of the club, wich allows bigger crowd to enjoy the show.
Another interesting venue is built from the former music stage. This allows many new opportunites for the alternative genres like theaters (some of the ensembles are already performing at Rock Cafe) experimental performances, evenings of literature and projections of interesting movies. This allows Rock Café to widen its range and became a truly multicultural venue.
