The Czech Philharmonic’s Advent begins with low strings and ends with low brass. This ensemble—made up of all members of the orchestra’s trombone and tuba sections —has consistently received warm acclaim. Spanning music from the Renaissance to the 20th-century, the programme honours not only the rich sound of brass but also pays tribute to Břetislav Kotrba, a long-time member of the Czech Philharmonic and a master of musical arrangements.

Advent Concert IV • Czech Philharmonic Low Brass Ensemble

Between the dramatic tones of the overture to Mozart’s last opera and the most dramatic Symphony by L. van Beethoven, the tones of the trombone concerto by a Danish composer from the first half of the 20th century, almost unknown in our country, will be heard.

Leoš Janáček IMF: An evening full of contrasts

DK Poklad, Ostrava

For the Czech Philharmonic’s wind players, the Czech Philharmonic Winds concerts give them the opportunity to play slightly different repertoire than usual. Often such repertoire can be a challenge, and this will be the case once again this year. As per tradition, the ensemble will be led by French horn player Ondřej Vrabce in works that explore the inexhaustible possibilities of wind instruments.

Czech Chamber Music Society • Czech Philharmonic Winds

With the actress Martha Issová, we will head for the realm of musical wonders and the world of Jaroslav Ježek. The new programme written by Alice Nellis commemorates the 120th birthday of the composer, conductor, and pianist. But we could not do it without musicians. Awaiting you are the players of the trombone and tuba section of our orchestra: the Czech Philharmonic Low Brass Ensemble.
