!Please note the change in the programme!

Due to the ongoing extraordinary floral exposition in the Red Church, which could cause discomfort or possible difficulties (allergies, respiratory problems, etc.) for the audience and artists, tomorrow’s concert K1 Chamber Evening with Robert Kružík will take place on 8 October at 7:15 pm in the Reduta. The discussion with the artists has been moved to Mozart hall and will take place from 18:15.

The next K series concerts will take place as planned, i.e. at the Red Church at the announced times from 7 pm.

Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to seeing you tomorrow!
