Francesco Corti live in Prague

Experience Francesco Corti live on November 24th

Francesco Corti, an Italian pianist known for his interpretations of Romantic and 20th/21st-century repertoire, with a particular focus on rediscovering and performing lesser-known works alongside established classics, will perform a concert on November 24, 2026, at Kostel Sv. Simona A Juda in Prague. Corti’s playing is often described as characterized by a nuanced dynamic range and a sensitive approach to phrasing, frequently exploring the emotional depth within compositions. He is also recognized for his improvisational skills and willingness to engage with contemporary musical ideas.

Kostel Sv. Simona A Juda (Church of St Simon and St Jude) is a Baroque church located in the New Town of Prague. Originally built between 1691 and 1693 by architect Giovanni Domenico Orsi, it was designed as a chapel for Czech Orthodox Christians fleeing religious persecution in Slovakia. The church underwent significant reconstruction in the 1990s after decades of disuse during the Communist era. Its interior features notable frescoes and stucco work reflecting its Baroque origins.
