Dear Friends,

The world of music does not consist just of composers, instrumentalists in concert halls, and singers on opera stages. Of no less importance are those companions of Euterpe who sit in the audience and receive joy and exaltation from music. In turn, the feeling of solidarity with the public is the greatest reward for musicians and a confirmation that their efforts have been worthwhile. There have been countless examples in music history of an enthusiastic listener becoming a participant in creating and initiating those beautiful events on stage, which they had formerly been able to witness only from the other side. The initiative of music-loving patrons such as the Marquis Ruspoli, Baron van Swieten, or Paul Sacher in more recent history has resulted in the creation and performance of immortal works that shall always belong to the most valuable products generated by European musical culture. In order for you to become an essential part of our efforts, you need not be a marquis or baron. So please accept our invitation to go on a journey of shared musical beauty and the realization of our dreams!

Václav Luks

Artistic director of the Collegium 1704

My dear Collegium,

when listening to you, if and when I manage to take my eyes off your chief Václav Luks while he's performing his conductor's dance, then I am safe in the knowledge that through your music I can comprehend all the world's languages and those four that I actually do speak, are no more than a joke. And that is a total beauty, my dear Collegium.
