Czech-French Organ Dialogs

St. Moritz Church Olomouc, 19.00
MVF5

At the very end of the Olomouc festival, Linda Sítková, the only lady of this year’s festival and the top Czech organist, will sit at the Engler’s organs in the Saint Maurice Church. Mainly as a soloist, she performs at concerts in many European countries and on domestic stages alongside leading Czech musicians and instrumental ensembles. Her performance in Olomouc will pay tribute to Czech works, which she will also confront with the legacy of French masters.
