The season 2020—21 will be inaugurated by one of the most famous works in the history of music, Handel’s Messiah, and this “messianic” spirit pervades the dramaturgy of the whole concert series. The unconventional programme of the Advent concert will recreate the atmosphere of Italian Baroque Christmas and we shall celebrate the arrival of the New Year with Mozart’s Coronation Mass.
Mysliveček's L'Olimpiade, presented last year by Collegium 1704 in Prague, Luxembourg, Dijon and Caen, has been nominated for British prestigious International Opera Awards within the Rediscovered Work category. Together with Olimpiade, projects by festivals Aix-en-Provence, Wexford and American Bard College have been nominated.
The Opera Awards winners were announced on 7 April 2014 in London and our congratulations go to the opera "Cristina, regina di Svezia" produced by Wexford Festival, winning The International Opera Award in Rediscovered Works category.
The nomination itself is an honor for us and a wonderful success for Czechculture, as well as Mysliveček's music, which more than deserves to be appreciated again.
