Prague Symphony Orchestra

This Easter concert is also the monthly installment of the much-loved Early Music Series of the city's top orchestral ensemble. With atmosphere to burn, the venue is a deconsecrated Old Town church whose pillaging over the centuries has been somewhat compensated for by trompe-l'oeil Baroque frescos throughout. The Kuhn Choir conducts a Mozart arrangement of Handel's 'Messiah'. Some outstanding soloists are onboard, so there aren't any bad seats in the nave.
