International Music Festival Young Prague at the Kolowrat Theater
On Monday, September 18, 2017, as part of the International Music Festival Young Prague and with the support of the Kolowrat-Krakowsky family and patronage of the Kolowrátek Endowment Fund, a classical music concert took place at the Kolowrat Theater. Czech pianist Václav Mácha, Slovak flute player Katarina Slavkovska and German pianist Aris Alexander Blettenberg performed classical music masterpieces by Ludwig van Beethoven, Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, Jacques Iber and Theobald Boehm.
The gala evening recorded two firsts at once:
For the first time, the Kolowrat Chamber Theater belonged entirely to the International Music Festival Young Prague and its young artists.
And it was also the first time that the magnificent sound of the new Petrof concert piano, chosen with the help of renowned pianists Norbert Heller and Ivo Kahanek, resounded in the theater.
The performances by young classical musicians were tremendously well received by both students and fans of classical music, as evidenced by the high turnout for the concert.
