Bringing Mozart to Prague may seem like bringing sand to the beach. However, Greek violinist and conductor Leonidas Kavakos convinces even experts that it is possible to discover new aspects of well-known music. A lucid, urbane Mozartian, as he is described by the British magazine Gramophone, Kavakos will perform Violin Concerto No. 3 with his gracefully elegant sound while also conducting the entire performance with his Stradivarius in his hands. This was common practice during the era in which Mozart stayed in Prague and his performances were received enthusiastically. Kavakos will also conduct Sergei Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 6, this time without his violin. programme Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — Violin Concerto No. 3 in G Major, K. 216 Sergej Prokofjev — Symphony No. 6 in E flat Minor, Op. 111 More all events festivals The Dvořák Prague International Music Festival 5. 9. 2025 — 23. 9. 2025 related events festivals The Dvořák Prague International Music Festival 5. 9. 2025 — 23. 9. 2025
