Andreas Scholl Conducts Coronation Music in Brno

Andreas Scholl takes the podium in Brno on 7 October 2026: at the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul he conducts SILENTIUM! ensemble in a festive Baroque programme. It is his only concert in the Czech Republic.

At its heart are two of Georg Friedrich Händel’s Coronation Anthems, Zadok the Priest and My Heart is Inditing – music that has been heard at coronations for centuries. Scholl pairs them with works from the courts of Vienna and Dresden: Jan Dismas Zelenka’s Te Deum for double choir and the Sinfonia from his Sub olea pacis et palma, and Johann Joseph Fux’s Sinfonia a 3 in C major. The programme commemorates the Habsburgs’ accession to the Bohemian throne 500 years ago.

Andreas Scholl is one of the most revered interpreters of the past decades. As a conductor, he has invaluable insights into the works of early music to share with musicians and audiences alike.

Wednesday, 7 October 2026, 19:00, Katedrála sv. Petra a Pavla, Brno
