New Year’s Concert
Who wouldn't want to dance their way through the upcoming year? For Antonín Dvořák, the Slavonic Dances marked a turning point: they allowed him to start living as a recognized composer. The optimism in his music can help us fulfill the resolution that in this new year, we too can change our lives for the better.

Description
ABOUT THE CONCERT
The turn of the year is a period of determination for new, better beginnings. As the saying goes, "As you start the New Year, so you'll spend the whole year." Some adhere to the tradition of eating lentils on New Year's, while the Prague Symphony Orchestra traditionally enters the new year to the rhythm of the furiant, convinced that the earthy energy abundant in the Slavonic Dances contributes greatly.
