PKF – Prague Philharmonia came into existence in 1994, originallyunder the name Prague Chamber Philharmonia, on the initiativeof the internationally renowned conductor Jiří Bělohlávek. The youngensemble brought onto the Czech, and later global, music scenea breath of fresh air and a contagious musical zest that can be still feltin their performances to this day. It did not take long for the PKF tobecome one of the most respected orchestras in the Czech Republicand to build an excellent reputation in Europe and the world.
What is valued most in respect of this ensemble is its characteristicsound; the continual and keen input of its founder Jiří Bělohlávek and the orchestra’s main area of repertoire, Viennese Classicism, both underpin this uniqueness. Nevertheless, when needed, the scopeof the repertoire is widened to include the Baroque era as well as contemporary music. The orchestra comprises 52 permanentmembers, with Jan Fišer and Lukáš Pospíšil the concert masters.
Jiří Bělohlávek stood at the helm of the orchestra until 2005, laterbecoming its Conductor Laureate. The Swiss conductor and flautistKaspar Zehnder was the PKF – Prague Philharmonia’s second chiefconductor in the years 2005–08. From the 2008–09 seasonthe orchestra was led by its chief conductor and music director JakubHrůša, who already at his young age enjoys international acclaim.
Chief Conductor ChangeJakub Hrůša (on the left)passes on the symbolic batonto Emmanuel Villaume
Jean-Guihen Queyras, Iva Bittová, Peter Dvorský, Dagmar Pecková and Bryan Hymel. The CDs are regularly acclaimed by internationalcritics and awarded prizes (Gold Disc RAC Canada in 2000, the FrenchDiapason d’Or 2007). The CD with Bryan Hymel was nominated for the International Opera Award in 2016.
PKF – Prague Philharmonia offers its home audiences a seriesof orchestral concerts, a chamber series, a series of contemporarymusic titled ‘The Beauty of Today’, and special concerts for children.The orchestra is the country’s pioneering ensemble as far aseducational activities are concerned, offering opportunities through its children’s club Notička and at the Orchestral Academy.
PKF – Prague Philharmonia is financially supported by the Cityof Prague and the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic.
At the beginning of the 2015–16 season the post of music director andchief conductor was assumed by the distinguished French conductorEmmanuel Villaume. In his first season in this role the orchestra was presented with new challenges, such as the addition of Frenchimpressionism and late Romanticism to the repertoire. Villaume willbe also leading the orchestra on its major USA tour in 2017, whichfeatures the excellent soloists Gautier Capuçon, Sarah Chang andAndrew von Oeyen.
PKF – Prague Philharmonia is regularly invited to international musicfestivals, has performed in the world’s foremost venues (Royal OperaMuscat in Oman, Tokyo, Paris, Munich, and Verona) and collaboratesregularly with world-renowned conductors and leadinginstrumentalists and singers. Among them are: Vladimir Ashkenazy,Milan Turković, Marta Argerich, Julian Rachlin, Jefim Bronfman,András Schiff, Shlomo Mintz, Sarah Chang, Isabelle Faust, MischaMaisky, Magdalena Kožená, Anna Netrebko, Jonas Kaufmann, NatalieDessay, Rolando Villazón, Plácido Domingo, Elina Garanča, Juan DiegoFlórez and Thomas Hampson.
So far the orchestra has recorded eight CDs for leading Czech andworld labels, including Deutsche Grammophon, Decca, Supraphon,EMI, Warner Music and Harmonia Mundi. To collaborate on theserecordings PKF – Prague Philharmonia invited soloists such as AnnaNetrebko, Eva Urbanová, Magdalena Kožená, Isabelle Faust,

Emmanuel VillaumeThe French-born conductor Emmanuel Villaume began his tenure as Music Director and Chief Conductor of PKF – Prague Philharmoniain September 2015. This nomination was the result of his previoussuccessful collaboration with the orchestra on several projects,including the Deutsche Grammophon recording with Anna Netrebkoand a Warner Classics release with Bryan Hymel. The conductor andorchestra also gave a number of concerts at home and abroad,including twice as a guest orchestra at a special New Year's GalaConcert at the Royal Opera House Muscat, Oman.
In his fourth season as Music Director of The Dallas Opera, MaestroVillaume led the company's last season in performances of Tosca,Show Boat, and the world premiere of Mark Adamo's Becoming SantaClaus. Guest engagements in the US last season included Romeo and Juliet at the Lyric Opera, Chicago. Following his triumph withManon at the Royal Opera House in London in 2014, Villaumereturned to Covent Garden for performances of Tosca, which wereenthusiastically received. ‘That the rest of it [the performance] is, for the most part, comparably fine, is due in no small measure to Emmanuel Villaume’s conducting – intense, passionate anddetailed, yet always considerate of the singers, who are neverswamped by the orchestra,’ wrote Tim Ashley in the Guardian about the performance.
Outside the USA he has conducted the Royal Philharmonic Orchestrain London, Orchestre de Paris, Orchestre Philharmonique de RadioFrance, Orchestr Beethovenhalle Bonn, Munich Radio SymphonyOrchestra, Die Duisburger Philharmoniker, Danish NationalSymphony Orchestra, Norwegian Radio Orchestra, KungligaFilharmonikerna in Stockholm and PKF – Prague Philharmonia.In Australia he conducted concerts with the Sydney, Melbourne andBrisbane orchestras and in Asia he performed with Tokyo SymphonyOrchestra NHK, Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra and ChinaState Opera orchestra during the Olympic Games in 2008.
Emmanuel Villaume was born in Strasbourg, in 1964 and studiedmusic at the Conservatoire de Strasbourg, followed by studies at École normale superieure and at Sorbonne, where he graduatedin literature, philosophy and musicology. As an author of notedarticles of musicology he was appointed artistic programmer at Opéranational du Rhin at the age of 21. He also holds an honorary doctoratefrom the University of Indianapolis. Emmanuel Villaume lives in Parisand in Dallas

Among other prestigious operacompanies where he has been frequently conducting are: Opéra deMontreal, Tokyo Bunka Kaikan, Teatro Colon in Madrid, Opéra Bastillein Paris, Théâtre du Capitole in Toulouse, Opéra Marseille, Teatro La Fenice, Teatro Regio di Torino, Teatro Real in Madrid, and manyopera houses in Germany including Bayerische Staatsoper, Deutsche Oper in Berlin, Staatsoper Hamburg, opera houses in Bonn and Cologne.

Dear Friends of the PKF – Prague Philharmonia,This is the fourth time that I have the honour to address you from thisposition. On every occasion I have informed you about the main tasksof the Managing Board, of which I am Chairman. Apart from workingclosely with Mr. Emmanuel Villaume, the Director of Music and ChiefConductor, and with Director Mr. Radim Otépka, the tasks mainlyconcern issues of strategy, finance and operational matters, hencesubjects outside of the artistic activities of our excellent orchestra.And the same can be said of the last season, and the coming seasonas well. As the managing board we are aware that these two areascannot be separated – for the orchestra to work well it needs a calm,favourable environment and financial stability. Not everythingdevelops to our satisfaction, not everything can be solved in time, and not always do the results of our efforts come immediately. But we shall not relent in our endeavours, and will continue to striveto be a valid part of our collective whole. What helps us in this is the moment when we can sit down in the auditorium and listen to the orchestra’s performance. This, at least in me, always invokesa sense of pride, emotions and positive motivation; an assurance thatour work and efforts for the benefit of PKF – Prague Philharmoniamake sense. I enjoy every applause, every conductor’s praise, andpositive reviews by critics… I believe that you will experience similarfeelings with our PKF – Prague Philharmonia in the upcoming season.After all, we are here for you.
I wish you many wonderful musical experiences and thank you for your trust and support.

A third strong component of the season’s dramaturgy revolves aroundBrahms position in the middle of the so-called first and secondViennese school. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, in celebrationof the 260th anniversary of his birth, will be present throughout ourseason. Among many other works of a composer that has always beenat the centre of PKF repertoire, we will perform, as a mirror toBrahms’ Serenades, Mozart’s Divertimento for wind instruments as well as the Symphony in E-flat Major KV543 under the baton of Jiří Bělohlávek. Webern, on the other hand, with his Concerto forNine Instruments, will represent the second Viennese school. Czechcomposers of the twentieth and twenty first century will be presentedin our series The Beauty of Today, as well in our main series by a PKF commission for contemporary Czech composer Jiří Kadeřábek.
There are many more obvious or more subtle connections in ourprogrammes for you to discover; we hope you will enjoy them againin great numbers in some of the many wonderful venues Prague offersbeside our extraordinary Rudolfinum: the Spanish Hall, LobkowitzPalace, Smetana Hall at the Municipal House and Forum Karlin.
We will be again very busy with recording and touring activities.Notably, PKF – Prague Philharmonia will go on an important tour to the USA. In Europe we will accompany several distinguishedsoloists, and we shall also repeat the special collaboration withthe prestigious Royal Opera in Oman.
Music is an essential and powerful part of our lives. I cannot thinkof a better institution than PKF and its musicians and a better citythan Prague to share with the world this passion.
Emmanuel Villaume
Dear Concertgoers and Friends of PKF,My first season at the head of our institution has been immenselyhumbling, intense and rewarding. Thanks to all of you, I feel I havealready developed a real connection with the audience and deepenedthe artistic relationship with our musicians. We had the pleasure tosuccessfully make music together in Prague and all over the worldin the most prestigious venues and we made several albums whichkeep winning awards, reinforcing both on stage and in recordingsthe exceptional international reputation of our beloved orchestra.
Last season was built around Martinů and his connection with Frenchmusic. For 2016/2017, in contrast, we will offer you to move to Vienna,around Johannes Brahms’ music. We hope to showcase the chambermusic side of his style through his two stunning and rarely performedserenades but also with some of his Hungarian Dances and even hisSecond Symphony, conducted by my predecessor Jakub Hruša.The season will culminate with his German Requiem.
As much as it is a serious responsibility, putting together a season is always a fun intellectual game. As we wanted to showcasethe virtuosity and versatility of our musicians in a solo capacity, we built a second “fil rouge” of our dramaturgy around works fororchestra and two soloists or more. Several of our members will be associated with world class instrumentalists such as EmmanuelPahud, Albrecht Mayer and Stephan Dohr. Furthermore, Louis Lortieand Helène Mercier will play Poulenc’s lovely and witty doubleconcerto.

Dear Listeners, our Friends,It is a great honour and pleasure for me to be able to address youagain via our new brochure. Our team, the PKF – PraguePhilharmonia headed by Chief conductor Emmanuel Villaume ledlong discussions about the shape and themes of the upcoming season.Over time our discussions brought a result that gives me realpleasure.
Looking at the new season, three key thematic areas stand out. First of all we highlight the virtuosity of PKF players by ‘matching’individual orchestra players with internationally renowned soloists(for example Oto Reiprich and Emmanuel Pahud, Lukáš Pospíšil andAlbrecht Mayer). This also touches on the theme of dialogue, be itamong musicians or musical styles. The second pillar is W. A. Mozart,or more precisely his 260th birth anniversary in 2016. PKF and Mozartare almost like one body; the works by this giant are, withoutexaggeration, imprinted in our orchestra’s DNA. That’s why Mozart’swork has been included in our concerts in the first half of 2016 and why he won’t be omitted from any concerts in the autumn partof 2016–17 season either. The third component is Johannes Brahms, as the German counterpart of the French programming in the lastseason and also another artistic goal for PKF.
This conceptual framework of our up-coming season allows forfurther, more subtle, links in the programmes of individual concertsof all series and enables us to present both chamber and orchestralworks across musical styles from late Baroque to contemporarymusic. It also reflects our main target: continuous progress andachieving top class interpretation.
in many concerts in Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Switzerland and Italy.We shall be honoured to meet with you at the best home festivals,such as the Prague Spring, Smetana Litomyšl and St. Wenceslas MusicFestival, and many other opportunities including our by now famousrecitals with opera stars.
I would like to express, on behalf of all players and the PKFmanagement, our thanks for your great support. This is especiallyappreciated during the current difficult climate in the world of culture,in which we fight every day for survival and in which your supportgives us all at PKF enthusiasm, energy and optimism for further work.
Radim OtépkaDirector PKF – Prague Philharmonia
Personally I very much look forward to the series The Beauty of Today,based on ‘pupil-teacher’ dialogue – evaluating this dualism in the21st century promises to bring audiences really special artisticenrichment. The ever-popular and sought-after chamber music series in the Museum of Czech Music will be carried out in the spiritof dialogues across centuries, and will again prove the strong qualityof our musicians in communicating through chamber music.
And if you want to know more how muses used to talk to famouscomposers, you should accept the elves’ Šíma and Lupi invitation to a concert for parents and children in Rudolfinum.
As you can see, we have prepared a rich and varied offering for you.I am sure the presented concept will hold its own against the mostexacting criteria you may have for the PKF, and believe that be itin Rudolfinum or in Forum Karlín, in the Spanish Hall at the PragueCastle or in the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art, together we shallexperience unique moments.
Apart from a good number of PKF – Prague Philharmonia’s ownprojects, the orchestra awaits many concerts at home and abroadin the coming season. I’m pleased to note that the orchestra will be presented in a month long tour in the USA, later in South Americaand other prestigious venues, in the Oman Royal Opera House and

I shall be happy to come back in the new season to an orchestra thatalways offers me an opportunity for spontaneous, totally unfetteredmusic making. This return is filled with emotions mixed witha modicum of pride, the feeling with which we observe oursuccessfully developing off-spring.

‘Two generations, six concerts, six couples, twelve individuals, twelve worlds and infinite horizons.’
A concert series of contemporary music THE BEAUTY OF TODAY, an established and at the same time exceptional PKF – PraguePhilharmonia project, will in the 2016–2017 season take up wherethe previous season ended. In the last season you were introduced,step by step, to music by six significant figures of Czech 20th-centurymusic. In this season, in each concert, we shall meet a couple, linkedby friendship, a teacher/pupil relationship or maybe a professionalpartnership. The focus of each evening will remain the same: music,performed by leading chamber soloists of PKF – Prague Philharmoniaand their guests, will constitute the core of each programme.
What will be unique is the presence of the composers, who will guideyou through their music during the concerts. Again, you can expectbeautiful music, interesting talks, film projections and a bit more…I believe that in this season you will find THE BEAUTY OF TODAYreally beautiful in its established form; fresh, spontaneous, enriching,full of music and important guests as you have become used to, andat the same time always extraordinary.

MEEtInG tHE MUsEs
PKF – Prague Philharmonia is a pioneer of educational programmesand concerts for children in the Czech Republic. Again we have paidgreat attention to make sure the programmes are compatible withthe young concert goers’ age and ways of communication, so thatthe events captivate even the most fidgety. Because of the greatsuccess of this series in the last season, the creator Vladimír Jopekdecided to again invite the series' ‘guides’ – the elves Šíma and Lupi.They will introduce four Muses to the audience, representing fourthemes. This way we won’t focus only on works by one chosencomposer, but a varied selection of musical pieces, often in surprising contexts, will be heard.
The concerts are aimed primarily at children from 3 to 11 years old.
The project realization is supported by the ČEZ Foundation

The Notička Children’s Club was founded nine years ago by PKF – Prague Philharmonia. The primary aim was to offer our youngaudiences of the popular children's concerts an even more intenseand stronger involvement with classical music and art.
Throughout the year, NOTIČKA organises 5-6 meetings. Thesegradually start turning their attention to outside the musical worldand musical education. Children are helped in developing theiraesthetical sensibilities, and they learn many new things.The objective of the Notička club is for the children to experiencesomething special, to try something they don’t usually do overthe week-ends with their parents; they should leave the club witha unique experience, thanks to which they will be able to comprehendmore easily things that are not covered in school education.

The PKF – Prague Philharmonia’s Orchestral Academy wasestablished in 2008, the very first project of its kind in the CzechRepublic. Following the success of its first year, the numberof students grew from five to the current twelve to fourteen. The aimof the project is to seek out talented students at music schools or theirgraduates and offer them the practical experience of orchestralplaying. With us, young gifted musicians can gain the worthwhileexperience of playing with an orchestra and conversely, the orchestracan enlarge its ranks with fully-fledged young talented players.In 2009 some Academy members took part in a unique project –the YouTube Symphony Orchestra, and two of them, Jakub Fišer andOndřej Martinovský, together with another ninety selected musiciansfrom around the world gave a performance conducted by MichaelTilson Thomas in Carnegie Hall in New York. This is further proofof the PKF – Prague Philharmonia Orchestral Academy’s uniquenessand effectiveness for its members.
In 2016 the Orchestral Academy project is financially supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic and the Air NavigationServices of the Czech Republic. The realisation of the project is supported by ČEZ Foundation.

“The four-movement Serenade doesn’t get performed often, maybealso because it puts great demands on the orchestra in respectof rhythm. The third movement whizzed with such speed that there wasno smidgen of chance for any split-second imprecision. The chamber-like format of the orchestra allowed them to feel the pulsating rhythmcompletely in unity. Admittedly, the success of the evening has to beascribed to a great extent to the French conductor EmmanuelVillaume. (…) Villaume’s gesture is pregnant, pronounced, almostdance-like, the result of his obsession with music.”Ivan Štraus, Harmonie, January 2016
“When an exceptional soloist, such as the Hungarian cellist LászlóFenyö, takes up the composition’s solo part, it can be a remarkableexperience for the listeners. Coupled with a top orchestra anda sensitive conductor, this became a reality. And the concert’s secondhalf was even more interesting. First a very well-played Siegfried’s Idyllby Richard Wagner and then came the highlight of the evening –Debussy’s three symphonic sketches, La mer.The strikingly charismatic Villaume rightly emphasised the work withan elaboration of details and a neat play with colours and moods.Orchestral precision is his automatic principle but I had to admire againand again the way each phrase breathed and was charged with energy.”Luboš Stehlík, Harmonie, January 2016
“The Highlight was the Symphony No. 4 in A major ‘Italian’ Op. 90.One of the best known of Mendelssohn’s compositions, it had goodtempi, freshness, precision, playfulness and an appropriate measureof dance-like character.”Luboš Stehlík, Harmonie, February 2016
REVIEWs 2015–2016 (sELECtIon)
“No. 7 in A major, Op. 92 during which the conductor’s high demandsreached their climax, and the same can be said aboutthe interpretational qualities of the orchestra. The chillingly thrillingAllegretto was literally breathtaking and with the tempo set high,the brilliantly executed fast sections of the piece were convincingproof of the orchestra’s fantastic current condition under the newchief conductor. All in all, if the motto ‘in a new style’ meansmaximum effort from all orchestra players coupled with the obviousperfectionism of Emmanuel Villaume, as I witnessed on 4 October,I am all too happy and look forward to the next concerts.” Irena Černíčková, Harmonie, October 2015
“It was the refined sound and balance of voices with which thischamber orchestra excelled. Although the 260 listeners in the packedhall had no visual experience – except for the first few rows –the sound everywhere was soothing. Even though the cellos anddouble basses were not placed on the resonant stage platform, theirsound was round and smooth. (…) The orchestra came to its ownmainly in the Antiche danze ed arie by Ottorino Respighi. It hadeverything. A detailed ensemble play, perfect intonation of all groupsand great dynamics full of tender pianissimos.”Libor Nováček, Opera Plus, 3 December 2015
“Already the opening composition, the Bohuslav Martinů Serenade,revealed that the relatively low age of the orchestra members allowsthem already the day after arriving from Oman to perform withoutany sign of fatigue from the journey or 3-hour jet lag. The concert,devoted to the French esprit, was filled with freshness, passion,exceptional virtuosity and variety almost beyond belief.”Ivan Štraus, Harmonie, December 2015
