Very enjoyable organ concert
Max_R, Apr 2024
All musicians were superb. Compositions were perfectly selected and matched the ambience of the church.
Nice performance in a beautiful church
Geoff_D, Dec 2023
The church was spectacular and the concert was very nice. Perfect length at about an hour. Venue was cold, but that’s expected in an old church at night in December. Dress warmly!
Organ concert
Carolyn_L, Oct 2023
Panis Angelicus was fabulous. It would have been better if the violin and soloist were on the stage instead of in the balcony where we couldn't see them even though our seats were good.
Fantastic
Susan_M, Oct 2023
The concert was wonderful! A violinist and mezzo soprano performed, as well as the organist. What a treat!
100% recommend
Sean_K, Oct 2023
This was really cool. 100% recommend if this is your first time in Prague. The performers are really talented and the venue is a very unique experience that you likely won’t find other places.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Thank you Sean, we are proud you selected our concerts, which are older privete concert series in Prague since 1993. Thank you for kind review!
Average...the building, location and organ history are what made it worth it.
Peter_F, Oct 2023
Building was gorgeous. Musicians (3, sproano, organist and violin) were playing in the veranda, so you couldn't see them, only hear them. Only after 30 minutes the soprano came down with the violinist. It started with Tocata and Fuge...and unfortunately not a very good rendition. It was alright, given the price point...you get what you pay for type deal. It was ok, but wouldn't repeat the experience.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Dear Peter , we are surprised you was not happy, but we accept your comments and we want to explain. You probably buy your ticket on last moment, = less than 30 minutes before concert, right? For all clients who come earlier we reserve good seats on left side, from where organ could be sow. Unfortunately those good seats are usually sold out before concert ... so we recomend everybody to come to church daily between 11AM - 5PM to buy ticket and reserve best seats available. We understand that not everybody could come earlier, but you should understand that best seats will not wait for latecomers... Regarding your negative comment on Toccata and Fuga C Dur from Czech baroque composer J. F. N. Seger, who was 40 years organist in St. Francis church, I am really surprised you know this unknown piece so good to comment interpretation quality. I studied music 10 years on conservatory and music Academy, and I even dont know all pieces so good. Didnt you expected Toccata from Bach which is popular one? Anyway, we do really apologize for your dissatisfaction ( which appear just rarelly) and we would like to propose you free ticket for your next visite of our concert, or money refund. Pls let us know if you accept one of our proposal. Sincerrelly Jakub
