Change of soloist for the concert on 8 and 9 September

The originally announced cellist Truls Mørk had to cancel his participation at the Dvořák Prague Festival due to a muscle injury. On behalf of the festival, we wish him a quick recovery.

Concerts on 8 and 9 Semptember will be joined by Spanish cellist Pablo Ferrández, who will perform under the direction of conductor Myung-Whun Chung with the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra.

Both Dvořák's Cello Concerto in B minor, which he will perform at the opening concert, and Robert Schumann's Cello Concerto, which will be heard on 9 September, were chosen by Pablo Ferrández in 2014 for his debut recording, which confirmed his growing international reputation at the time.
