Semyon Bychkov, Czech Philharmonic

ABOUT CONCERT

While Czech Philharmonic audiences may associate its Chief Conductor Semyon Bychkov with the music of Tchaikovsky, Mahler, Shostakovich, and Dvořák, for these concerts, the Orchestra will go back in time with him to present what many regard as one of the greatest compositions of the baroque era: Bach’s Mass in B minor, featuring echoes of Gregorian plainchant.
