Czech National Symphony Orchestra
Jan Hasenöhrl & The Loop Jazz Orchestra
Steven Mercurio, conductor
Michael Kocáb, vocals, keyboards
Pražský výběr
and others
Eclectic concert with a touch of wildness (the music of Prague Castle, chambre and bigband jazz, chanson and pop, wild strings, symphonic opera, Pražský výběr – solo and accompanied by an orchestra and many talented musician friends)
Michael Kocáb needs little introduction. A civil activist, politician, entrepreneur, music composer, and singer, he is one of the most prominent figures in both Czech music and politics. His band, Pražský výběr, was a defining force in the Czech new wave scene, which is why the communist regime banned it for several years.
Michael Kocáb's life has truly been a rollercoaster ride, and the celebration of his 70th birthday at Metronome Prague 2024 promises to be just that.
