One of the most sought-after film composers in the Smetana Hall of the Municipal House

Born in Romania and musically raised on classical music and jazz, Vladimir Cosma found his true creative home in France, where he began composing film scores and quickly gained a distinguished position. His name is associated with iconic films such as The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe, The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob, The Wing and the Thigh, Animal, and many others. He is renowned for his gift of writing melodies that are catchy, witty, and moving—themes that not only accompany the film but become an inseparable part of it. Cosma has been honored with numerous international awards, including two César Awards for Best Original Score—for Diva (1981, awarded in 1982) and Le Bal (1983, awarded in 1984).

The Smetana Hall is the most famous and largest concert hall of the Municipal House in Prague

Prague Municipal House and the splendid interior of its main hall, named after famous Czech composer Bedřich Smetana, will take your breath away. The best way how to explore this exquisite hall is to attend one of the great classical concerts held here.

Built as a tribute to Bedřich Smetana - world known Czech composer. Representative Smetana Hall was the site of the independent Czechoslovak Republic declaration in 1918. Nowadays it serves predominantly as a concert hall.

Beautiful Art Nouveau decorations – paintings with Slavic motifs, decorative stained glass ceiling, gilded lamps, beautiful organ – all this creates an unusually harmonic whole, which is a worthy area for implementation of the greatest treasures of Czech and world classical music.

The Municipal House in Prague was built at the place of the former Royal Court in 1912 to celebrate the Czech nation. It is a representative building which for its splendour and beautiful decorations is one of the jewels of Prague architecture. Although the building is usually described as an "Art Nouveau" edifice it is more of a blend of neo-Baroque, neo-Renaissance, western and oriental influences and Czech Art Nouveau style.

Today, the Municipal House in Prague offers a wide range of multifunctional premises in which all sorts of events are held (exhibitions, conferences, fashion shows, charity events, companies' shows, etc.). There is also a great and highly recommendable French restaurant, Municipal House Café and American bar.
Municipal House is, above all, a great venue for Prague classical music concerts and one of the prime venues of the world-famous Prague Spring Festival.
