The basis of the Prague Autumn Festival’s programme does not comprise Classical orchestral works alone. In 2005, the festival programme included, for the first time, the complete performance of an opera all the way from China, which met with great success. In addition to this musical genre, the Prague Autumn Festival has hosted the Xalapa Guitar Orchestra from Mexico, it has repeatedly presented the world premiere of the famous Paco Pena’s flamenco performance, and it has dazzled Prague audiences with the hundred-strong gipsy violin orchestra as well as the most famous balalaika orchestra from Moscow. The Prague Autumn Festival has also presented symphonic arrangements of jazz and for the first time in history screened Chaplin’s famous film City Lights accompanied by live music, arranged by composer and conductor Carl Davis.
