The contents of this release present a selection of roughly a century of Czech choral works performed by Prague Mixed Choir and soloists. The wealth of choral works left to us by Czech composers is very rich and amazing - this new album features pieces of Antonín Dvorák, Vítezslav Novák, Bohuslav Martinu and Zdenek Lukáš. Prague Mixed Choir has long been one of the top Czech non-professional choirs. It has enjoyed much success at home and abroad and has won several awards at prestigious choral competitions, including the international competition Praga Cantat. In addition to it's domestic concerts, the choir proudly performs Czech music on foreign concert tours, of which it has completed more than sixty to date. These include visits to most European countries, the United States, Canada, Japan, Israel, China, and Egypt.
