ABOUT THE CONCERT
To mark 260 years since the birth and 210 years since the death of Jakub Jan Ryba, the Karlovy Vary Symphony Orchestra joined the Karlovy Vary primary and art school and the Karlovy Vary Municipal Theatre last year to create a unique production in which the celebrated Czech Christmas Mass took on an exceptional music-and-dance form. Following the enthusiastic audience response, the project returns for one special performance.
