Get your tickets for a great evening of Czech music in the Archbishop's Palace. Dvorak is one of the greatest Czech composers of all time, while Pavel Haas is somewhat less known. He was a promising composer, but was deported by the Nazis and died in Auschwitz in 1944. His string quartet No. 2 has both folk melodies from Morovia and jazz elements in it.

A collaboration with The Embassy of the Czech Republic in Oslo, The Czech Consulate in Trondheim, NRS and Optimera.
