Bizet GALA
The ninth edition of the annual GALA pre-Christmas concert series, which is traditionally organised by the company BVA International and the Prague Radio Symphony Orchestra, is dedicated to the music of Georges Bizet. If you are an admirer of his work, pay a visit to Prague’s Congress Centre on 9 December.
