S Evou jsme navštívili zahajovací koncert Pražského jara. Má Vlast v podání Berlínských filharmoniků je opravdu výjimečný zážitek, který je nejenom oslavou hudby, ale i oslavou vlastenectví v tom nejlepším slova smyslu. Pražské jaro nám zároveň umožňuje opustit kulturní hranice

Festival Festival Pražské jaro / Prague Spring Festival zahájen! Mou vlast tentokrát hrál jeden z nejlepších orchestrů na světě Berliner Philharmoniker pod taktovkou Kirilla Petrenka. Bylo mi nesmírným potěšením a ctí, že jsme obdrželi takový dárek u příležitosti letošního 200. výročí od narození a 140. výročí od úmrtí

What a night! Thank you for another unforgettable performance at the Prague Spring Festival. Your music continues to enchant and inspire us all!
