Prague Philharmonic Choir

The Prague Philharmonic Choir stands as one of Europe’s most respected vocal ensembles, celebrated for its rich interpretations of Czech classical gems and adventurous dips into global repertoire. Rooted in Prague’s storied musical tradition, the choir has championed works by homegrown legends like Dvořák (their recent *Requiem* and *Stabat Mater* releases showcase this perfectly) alongside 20th-century innovators such as Martinů and Janáček. Their recordings, like *Stravinsky, Janáček, Bartók: Village Stories* and *Škvor: Children Songs*, reveal a knack for balancing dramatic intensity with folksy charm—a signature of their Central European identity.

Known for powerhouse collaborations, they’ve joined forces with top-tier orchestras and conductors on projects ranging from Mahler’s sweeping *Symphony No. 2* to Hindemith’s gritty opera *Cardillac*. Whether breathing life into rediscovered treasures (like Josef Křička’s choruses) or tackling contemporary works (*Filas: Zahor´s Bed*), their performances blend precision with raw emotional heft. A cultural ambassador for Czech music, they’re like a vocal time machine—equally at home unearthing Baroque fugues or navigating modern harmonies.
