PRAGUE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
Tomáš BRAUNER | conductor
In February 2023, the FOK orchestra, led by its chief conductor Tomáš Brauner, will set out on a tour to Germany. Of course, the destination is important, but so is the co-driver, and in this case, the German horn player Felix Klieser is truly remarkable. Not only for his mastery of playing, but also for his heroic struggle against destiny; he was born without hands and controls the French horn with his toes. He is constantly embarking on new projects, recording diligently old masters and German romantic music. As a chamber musician and soloist. For his debut with the FOK, Klieser will take on Strauss's First Concerto. There is a lot to look forward to, especially when Strauss sounds in the company of a Czech master of masters, whose music is in Germany like at home.
