Czech Philharmonic • Christian Immler

In the latter half of the 19th century, society was sharply divided in central Europe.

The Czech Philharmonic’s Chief Conductor Semyon Bychkov has chosen to please those who favour the latter in these concerts entirely devoted to the music of Johannes Brahms.
