Recital at the Klementinum, Prague
The Klementinum (sometimes spelt as Clementinum) was originally a chapel built in the 11th century. After several expansions over the centuries, it is now the second largest building in Prague, after the Prague Castle. Part of the building is currently the national library of the Czech Republic, housing an amazing collection on art and history of the country. The Mirror Chapel, built in 1724, houses an organ that was played by Mozart! It was here that I gave a recital on a Petrof piano to an almost full house.
