We can offer f.i. the private visit of the church of st. Francis of Assissi, there is the organ with the best sound in the whole city. Many
famous people played on this organ, f.i. Christoph Willibald Gluck in time,
when he studdied at the Prague University. Later f.i. Jan Nepomuk Skroup,
the father of our composer of the Czech anthem, but at the same time the
young only 19 years old student Antonin Dvorak, later famous composer. The
church was dedicated in 1688, it was the first building of the so called
high baroque style in the city and its architecture is of the European
significance. The church has been used for the organ concerts.
The choirs can have the unique opporutinity to sing a few songs at different churches accompanied by the professional organist.
Than the group will go on to see and sing at the other church of the Old Town.

The Early Morning Stroll Through Romantic Prague
"Prague is beautiful in the daybreak when you can hear the river Vlatava lapping below teh Charles Bridge. The deserted streets and parks are just preparing to wake up. The astronomical clock gracing the tower of the Old Town Hall beats the time at regular intervals, but the statuettes of its saints only bow down to the ever-present pidgeons, The city strats to wake up."
