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 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.

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.
