Almost 300 years after its premiere, Johann Sebastian Bach's St. John Passion remains one of the most moving and dramatically impressive works in music history. From the biblical account of the suffering and death of Christ, Bach created an oratorio that shines in Baroque splendor. The solo parts are interpreted by the brilliant singers Miriam Kutrowatz, Christa Ratzenböck, Bernhard Berchtold and Wilfried Zelinka. The Salzburg Philharmonic Chamber Choir performs the impressive choruses and touching chorales.

Tarmo Peltokoski, Principal Guest Conductor of The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, has had a passion for Mozart since he first saw the »Magic Flute« at the age of eleven. With hand-picked soloists – led by Elsa Dreisig, Mauro Peter and Kathryn Lewek – the young Finnish conductor now promises a rousing, semi-staged performance of this timeless opera!

The 80th edition of the Prague Spring will culminate in a performance of arguably the largest-scale work in the classical concert repertoire. Symphony No. 8 by Gustav Mahler (1860–1911) for eight soloists, two mixed choirs, children’s choir and a vast orchestra with organ earned the subtitle “Symphony of a Thousand”. The mammoth task to conduct the Czech Philharmonic in this full-length work was entrusted to Semyon Bychkov, who is regarded as one of the greatest Mahler conductors today.

Together with conductor Nicholas Kraemer, the orchestra will follow Bach's Mass in B minor, which is considered by many to be one of the finest Baroque compositions and in which one can hear echoes of Gregorian chant.

Rudolfinum

A devilish seducer defying both God and society, Don Giovanni has become the symbol of the libertine with a formidable life force for some, and a profane and mendacious cynicism for others. The powerful man combines all the flaws and has fascinated artists and audiences since his creation by Tirso de Molina and Molière, closely followed, in Prague in 1787, by Mozart and da Ponte. The two creators fixed the myth and offered lyric art its first hero transcending the ages. In the staging, Agnès Jaoui achieves a rare balance between comedy and drama, multiplying the expressive power of the work and bringing a renewed vision of the characters. A sparkling ensemble of soloists praises this new co-production bringing together no fewer than three French opera houses. A production not to be missed under any circumstances!
