Grieg & Mendelssohn at Municipal House

About the Event

Conductor Petr Altrichter is a proud native of Radhoštěm, but also a world traveler who has got to know the Nordic repertoire in detail. Hence Jean Sibelius' mythical Karelia. Petr Altrichter is also a musician with a big heart who, when he meets young talent on his life's journey, blows its sails. This is also the case with Marek Kozák, whom he met with the accompaniment of FOK at the Prague Spring Competition in 2016. After a sold‐out recital at the World Piano Festival in February 2023, it was finally time for Smetana Hall and Edvard Grieg. The meeting of friends will also culminate in the North: with Mendelssohn's Scottish Symphony, in his own words the best.
