As the Czech Republic takes over the presidency of the European Union for six months in July 2022, the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels is taking advantage of this to highlight Czech artists and composers in its 2022-2023 season.

Nine musical events will be held during which Jan Kučera and the Prague Philharmonia, the Pavel Haas Quartet and the Collegium 1704 will be performed, as well as Magdalena Kožená, Hana Blažíková, Václav Luks, Lukáš Vondráček and the Czech Philharmonic (with Semyon Bychkov and Gautier Capuçon).

Pianist Leif Ove Andsnes will perform Janáček and Dvořák, while Magdalena Kožená will perform Arianna has a Problem, based on Monteverdi’s Lamento d’Arianna, which the Czech composer Marko Ivanović dedicated to his compatriot.
