On behalf of our group, I would like to express our sincere gratitude for all the dedication and professionalism shown throughout Praga Cantat. It was a great pleasure to take part in such an inspiring event, where music and the spirit of sharing were always present!

We especially appreciate the kindness and availability of the guides who accompanied us, as well as the efficiency and clarity with which all our questions were answered by email. Your attention to every detail made our experience in Prague truly memorable, including the excellent organization that allowed us to rehearse both with the choir alone and with the pianist, which we greatly valued.

Lieber Jaroslav und dem gesamten Orgateam von “Praga Cantat”,

herzlichen Dank für die wunderbare Organisation und das tolle Wochenende in Prag. Mit Emilie hatten wir eine super Betreuerin, absolut verlässlich, lieb und nett – und mit Marie eine klasse Stadtführerin. Rundum ein großartiges Event, bei dem wir viele schöne Erfahrungen und Einblicke sammeln konnten. Vielen Dank nochmals für alles!

Dear Jaroslav and the entire Praga Cantat organizing team,

Thank you very much for the wonderful organization and the great weekend in Prague. Emilie was a fantastic Festival assistant, absolutely reliable, kind, and friendly – and Marie was a great city guide. All in all, it was a fantastic event where we were able to gather many wonderful experiences and insights. Thank you again for everything!

Dear Mr. Brych,

I would like to congratulate you on the excellent organization of the PragaCantat event a few days ago. We are still deeply impressed by the beautiful performances and the wonderful atmosphere.

On behalf of the singers, our cultural association and of course our choir director, Mr Stanko Polzer, I would like to thank you and the whole team once again. In addition to the musical success we were able to celebrate, we would especially like to thank you for the professional and cordial organisation of your choir competition.

Especially the opening concert with songs from all participating countries or the musical farewell event (dance) gave the competition an extremely human and warm touch and our choir particularly enjoyed it.

We will always have fond memories of these days in golden Prague.

It was a pleasure and honor to be the part of Praga Cantat 2024 and we hope that you are satisfied as well with festival. Sadly everything finished so fast so next time we have to stay and experience beautiful Prague a few days more.

Dear Mr. Zicha and Mr. Petrdlik,

On behalf of all my choir colleagues and our music director, I would like to express our sincere gratitude for allowing us to participate and compete in the outstanding 35th Annual International Praga Cantat Choral Festival. We are still thrilled about the experience! The opportunity to see exceptional performances and to meet somewonderful choirs from such a diverse international background was truly unique and we are sure will inspire us to continue to grow as a choir and as performers. We have already begun to build relationships with one or two other choirs we’ve met, and we hope they will lead to future interactions and lasting friendships.

The organisation and running of the whole weekend is to be commended – we were well looked after and the management of the complex logistics was excellent. Please pass on our thanks to all the organisers, staff and volunteers who were involved in making the event run so well. The festival venue was beautiful, both the National House in Vinohrady with its beautiful lounges and halls; as were the surroundings. We all had a very enjoyable time in the very beautiful and welcoming city of Prague. In addition to the attention and judgment of the international jury in the competition categories, the open, honest and constructive feedback that Mr. Petrdlík and Mrs. Fadljevičová gave us after our performance in the “Festival” category was especially valuable to us. We will try to take this into consideration and move forward as a choir.

Finally, we must praise the extraordinary opening performance, which we all enjoyed immensely. We appreciate the many hours of hard work that the Cancioneta Praga choir and its leaders must have put in to make such a wonderful performance look so effortless and fun. Bravo! Thank you again to you and your team for making us so welcome and for giving us the opportunity to take part in such an amazing and inspiring festival.

Dear Jaroslav,
I´m happy to say, that everything worked out very well. I’m glad we decided to take the addittional program elements, that all the choir members liked a lot. The Jazz-boat was a real highlight – good food, best local wines and a very nice band to meet our taste. The folklore personal was nice and the performers did their best to entertain us, so another experience worthwile taking. We did like really much both castle tours, especially because of the guides, who were both extremely professional and experienced.
I think festival was professionally organised and it was easy to communicate with you. It may be in the beginning of preparation not so easy to get the answers from group members to decide about program elements, but you were patient with us and I think our communication was smooth. Festival program was interesting and rewarding. The opening concert was fun with very professional performance at the same time. I think much of the festival experience came from the chance to listen to other participants’ performance, especially the 2 outstanding Indonesian choirs. The venue was nice and acoustically also a good place to perform.
Please forward our greetings to Eva, our guardian for first 2 days. We’re grateful she took her time to be with us!
