The Masaryk School extends heartfelt thanks to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra for granting us the opportunity to meet maestro Jakub Hrůša and violinist Josef Špaček after their breathtaking performance at the Symphony Hall this past Thursday. 🎶🎻

It was an honor for some of our teachers, students, and parents to engage in a Q&A session alongside representatives from the Consulate General of the Czech Republic in Chicago and the Prague Committee of Chicago Sister Cities International.

Josef Špaček, who stepped down as concertmaster of the Czech Philharmonic in 2020 and has gone on to become a noted violin soloist, makes his Chicago Symphony Orchestra debut. He will join Hrůša for a rare performance of Czech composer Bohuslav Martinů’s once-lost Violin Concerto No. 1 (1932-33), which the CSO premiered in 1973 with Josef Suk as soloist.

SRPŠ mělo hluboký kulturní zážitek na sobotním koncertě Chicago Symphony Orchestra, který dirigoval Jakub Hrůša. 🎶 Pro naši žačku Emmu Měchovou to byla vůbec první návštěva chicagské symfonie. 🎺
Zájemci mají ještě tři možnosti vidět pana dirigenta v akci po boku s českým houslistou Josefem Špačkem, a to tento čtvrtek, pátek a sobotu. 🎻

Participants don't need to be from Chicago, we have been joined by travelers from all over the USA! Starting earlier or extending the stay in Europe is possible too since everyone is responsible for their own airfare. There is so much to see if your schedule is not tight.

This two-week extravaganza will take travelers to Prague, where they will participate in the Sokol slet, then to Kladno, the birthplace of Chicago Mayor Antonín Čermák, to Olomouc and further to Poland. In Poland, the group will visit Krakow and the Auschwitz concentration camp. The journey will then continue to Slovakia's Tatra Mountains. Travelers will return to Prague through the town of Uherské Hradiště.

We very much hope you will be able to join us on this journey through the heart of Central Europe! 🇨🇿🇸🇰🇵🇱
