Czech Philharmonic Winds

ABOUT CONCERT

For the Czech Philharmonic’s wind players, the Czech Philharmonic Winds concerts give them the opportunity to play slightly different repertoire than usual. Often such repertoire can be a challenge, and this will be the case once again this year. As per tradition, the ensemble will be led by French horn player Ondřej Vrabce in works that explore the inexhaustible possibilities of wind instruments.
