PKF - PRAGUE PHILHARMONIA DONATORS' EVENINGS

The first of the evenings within the PKF – Prague Philharmonia’s new concert cycle will comprise a programme that will delight admirers of passionate tango and Latin American rhythms, as well as ardent classical music lovers…

After a few months, the foremost Czech orchestra will again present on a domestic stage Miloš Karadaglić, a critically acclaimed classical guitar star of Montenegro origin, performing under the name MILOŠ. The guitar master, who has captivated audiences in sold-out concert halls all over the world with his passionate and elaborate playing, first captured the attention of Czech music-lovers as one of this year’s hottest attractions at the prestigious Prague Spring festival. Accompanied by the PKF – Prague Philharmonia’s resident players and under its chief conductor Jakub Hrůša, his unfettered performance will launch the cycle of donators’ evenings PKF de luxe, whose aim it is to support the orchestra’s activity by means of unique concerts.

The debut concert within the PKF de luxe series, promising fans of classical music and its inspired cross-overs, as well as loyal PKF – Prague Philharmonia supporters, unforgettable musical and non-musical experiences, will take place on 23 October in the elegant premises of Prague’s Žofín Palace. Prior to the concert, the guests will be greeted with a welcome drink or a cocktail, which they will have the opportunity to savour together with MILOŠ himself. The performance will be followed by a gala dinner, also in the exclusive presence of the guitar maestro, who will also be joined by the chief conductor Jakub Hrůša. The evening will then continue with an after-party featuring a set by the popular Clarinet Factory ensemble, who in tandem with DJ Pierre Urban will undoubtedly get the guests dancing.
