PKF – Prague Philharmonia is a world-renowned orchestra with a rich tradition. Although PKF profiles itself as an orchestra of classical music, other genres, including film music, are no strangers to it. Proof that the ensemble of film melody is good was, for example, a concert directly at the Mecca of Film Arts, at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival in 2019, or a collaboration with David Newman, whose music was nominated for an Oscar.
The music of Hollywood composers will be performed by PKF – Prague Philharmonia under the baton of renowned conductor and composer Jan Kučera. However, he will also play under the direction of the composers themselves – he conducts his own music, for example, Jeff Beal, Conrad Pope or Chris Egan.
The concert is the culmination of the several-day Soundsgate COMPOSERS Summit 2022, which Reflex is a media partner. Summit is designed for professionals in audiovisual and music publishing, with a series of workshops, interesting lectures, debates and lessons with all the above composers in person. The event is one of the largest in Central Europe in its genre. The organizing company Soundsgate focuses on the creative production of music and sound in audiovisual and collaborates with renowned artists and musicians, such as Elia Cmiral, Petr Wajsar, Dominik Svoboda and Jiří Hradil.
