UNIQUE: Special concerts

Special concerts offer traditional philharmonic events, including the Opening concert of the season, New Year’s concert dedicated to 200th anniversary of birth of Johann Strauss junior conducted by Michel Tabachnik and a concert called the Mozart effect, with a special focus on expectant parents. Last season we succesfully launched a project called In the orchestra (the audince sits as close to the musicians as possible), which you can expect again. The annual events are complemented by the September concert in cooperation with the ŠTETL FEST festival. And for the first time, in this season the stage will also belong to laureates of several prominent music competitions.
