The Prague Philharmonia was founded in 1994 by conductor Jiří Bělohlávek (1946-2017). Today it is one of the most recognized orchestras: not only within the Czech Republic but throughout the world. Since its 2015/2016 season, the orchestra has been led by the captivating French conductor Emmanuel Villaume. Villaume is also the current Music Director of The Dallas Opera.
The orchestra will be joined by the tenacious young Canadian violinist Blake Pouliot, who has established himself as ”one of those special talents that comes along once in a lifetime.” (Toronto Star). Since his orchestral debut at the mere age of 11, Pouliot has performed with the orchestras of Aspen, Atlanta, Detroit, Dallas, Madison, Montreal, Toronto, San Francisco, and Seattle, among many others. Pouliot was most recently the soloist-in-residence with Yannick Nézet-Séguin’s Orchestre Métropolitain in which he performed Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 5 and Piazzolla’s The Four Seasons, which led to Pouliot’s debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra (also with Nézet-Séguin) at the Kimmel Center.
The orchestra will also be joined by pianist Andrew von Oeyen. Since his debut at age 16 with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Esa-Pekka Salonen, Mr. von Oeyen has presented a wide range of concerto and solo repertoire at leading venues worldwide. He has appeared as soloist in the United States with such ensembles as the Philadelphia Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony, National Symphony Orchestra, Detroit Symphony, Dallas Symphony, Atlanta Symphony, amongst others. He has given recitals at London's Wigmore Hall and Barbican Hall, Lincon Center, the Kennedy Center, Boston’s Symphony Hall, and Royce Hall in Los Angeles. He is highly regarded for his critically acclaimed solo and concerto albums include repertoire ranging from Bach and Beethoven to Debussy, Gershwin, Ravel and Saint-Saëns.
