The Spanish Synagogue in Prague is one of the most beautiful synagogues in Europe
The synagogue got its name from the Moorish style, in which it was in 1868 built on the site of the original synagogue – so called Altschul - from the 12th century. Exotic style, inspired by famous Alhambra, emphasized the reformist character of the new synagogue, which belonged to German-speaking reform Jews.
The building was designed by Josef Niklas and Jan Bělský, the remarkable interior by Antonín Baum and Bedřich Münzberger. František Škroup, the composer of the Czech national anthem, served as organist here in 1836-45 (i. e. still in Altshul). The synagogue now belongs to the Prague´s Jewish Museum, it houses part of the exhibition, and popular concerts of classical and sacred music often take place here.

Velmi dobře zvolený repertoár, super výkony všech učinkujících.

It was excellent except that for some reason I expected a choir and not one singer... and it was too short, I would have loved for it to be another half hour at least.

Très bel endroit, dommage que l'endroit où sont installés les musiciens manque de visibilité; impossible de voir leurs mains jouées ....juste un crâne par ci par là.... L'oreille et le visuel sont nécessaires pour ce genre de spectacle.

Skupina byla velmi spokojena jak výběrem repertoáru, tak provedením.

Beautiful music but very short! Was not as good value for money as some other musical events.
Bernhard Schaefer | October 05, 2024 | 20:00 (Sat)
We can highlyrecommend this concert. We would never have thought that the well-known pieces such as Hallelujah, Bohemian Rhapsody etc. can be adapted so well for strings and trumpet. The interior of the synagogue in itself is fantastic and the acoustics are unique. It would have been great if there had been a programme for the entire concert, even if it had only been a printed and copied page.

The venue an incredible audio experience naturally enhancing the instruments and singer. The program is a combination of light classical and Broadway show tunes. An enjoyable hour of music.

Instead of focusing on many musical pieces and short extracts of each, it would be better to have fewer pieces that last longer. However, the female singer and the musicians were very good.
