In the year that marks the thirtieth anniversary of the first-ever CNSO concert, we are committed to bringing our listeners some of our most widely loved programmes and conductors. One such combination was Carl Davis, the darling of Prague audiences, and his The Beatles Night project. The Smetana Hall has hosted this concert several times, and it is always hopelessly sold out.

Tonight, the Czech National Symphony Orchestra will perform under the baton of the conductor, composer, arranger, and jazz pianist Kryštof Marek, with whom the CNSO has collaborated repeatedly in the past.

A Hard Day’s Night, Norwegian Wood, Let it Be... plus most of their other hits will be performed for your ears at the Prague Proms festival as part of the CNSO’s thirtieth season!
