Jazz Spirituals in the Wallenstein Garden
Where: Wallenstein Garden, Letenská 123/4, 118 00 Malá Strana show on map
The Jazz Spirituals concert is quite unique in the programme of the Prague Philharmonic Choir. Performed by the first Czech choir, you will hear compositions that are not part of the usual repertoire, but can catch you with their original temperament. Choral music will ring out the Wallenstein Garden on 7 June from 20:00 in the open air, the event is free to attend.
Black spirituals are a phenomenon of American culture. These emotionally imbued religious songs gained popularity primarily because of their catchy melodies and rhythms, which, among other things, gave rise to jazz in the early 20th century. Today, spirituals are performed in a variety of arrangements all over the world, and even Czech music bears their distinctive imprint. Antonín Dvořák studied spirituals during his several-year stay in America and was then influenced by their specific melodies and rhythms in his own compositions.

“Spirituals are not a regular part of our repertoire. But four years ago we performed Gershwin’s opera “Porgy and Bess”, the choral parts of which are largely based on spirituals. The concert was conducted by the famous conductor Wayne Marshall, and we received great praise from him for our staging, including praise for our pronunciation of a specific black dialect. That is why we decided to build on that experience and create our own original spiritual program.” Says choirmaster Lukáš Vasilek.
We cordially invite you to the final choral concert of this season!
Admission is free.
