PRAGUE CHOIR FESTIVAL WITH ROLLO DILWORTH
With Extensions to Vienna and Salzburg
Czech Republic — July 1 - July 6, 2022
[email protected] • (719) 260-0200
Dear Friends,
Prague is such a charming city that I wanted to share it with you as the location for our 2022 Festival.
We will gather in the Czech Republic in early summer to sing in individual and exchange settings as well as a combined choir. After rehearsals and time to ‘join our voices as one’ we will present our Gala Concert to the citizens of Prague.
There is something indescribable about touring as an ensemble, enjoying traveling adventures together, building spirit and singing in exquisitely historic venues with exceptional acoustics.
Prague was the capital of Bohemia and has an extraordinary ancient and recent past. The city boasts many cultural and historic attractions including Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, the Old Town Square with the astronomical clock and the Jewish Quarter all within walking distance of each other. Prague is also an easy drive from Vienna and half a day’s driving from Berlin for instance.
You are welcome to talk to me about the festival elements and with KI Concerts about the touring as we build the experience around your wishes.
See you in Prague
