Christmas Classic Spectacular in Mirror Chapel

ABOUT

Let yourself be charmed by the festive atmosphere of Christmas in the unique Mirror Chapel of Klementinum. The Advent concert performed by the Royal Czech Orchestra and three top soloists – soprano Eva Müllerová, violinist Viktor Mazáček (member of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra) and renowned organist Robert Hugo – will bring you a selection of the most beautiful Christmas music from the Czech and European traditions.

The magnificent Mirror Chapel, a Baroque gem built between 1722 and 1726, will enhance this exceptional experience with its magical atmosphere, rich decoration, and unique acoustics. It was here that W. A. Mozart himself once sat at the organ keys – and the genius loci of this place is still palpable today.

Treat yourself to a Christmas concert that combines the beauty of classical music, the spiritual power of Advent, and the magic of one of Prague's most impressive venues.
