NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester / Josef Špaček / Petr Popelka

The turn of the year in Czech

"Happy New Year!" - or as you would say in Czech: "Šťastný nový rok!": For the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester, the turn of the year 2026/2027 is all about the rousing music of the Czech Republic. And for good reason, as Hamburg and Prague are not only connected by the Elbe and Vltava rivers, but have also been twinned since 1990.
