The closing of the festival will take place in the castle gardens
A new element of this year’s festival will be the closing composed evening in the castle garden. The president of the IMF Český Krumlov Jaromír Boháč has outlined what form it will take, “The new festival venue for this year will be the castle garden, in which the last of this year’s concerts will take place. We will give a welcome to the visitors in the summer riding hall from where, after a short official closing of the festival, we will all move to the Baroque fountain, where the first part of the program ‘Illumination of the Garden’ will be prepared. Then the guests will move over to the so-called English park next to the music pavilion, where they will listen to the concert itself ‘A Night of Baroque Masters’, trumpeter Marek Zvolánek and the Barocco sempre giovane ensemble will play compositions by Charpantier, Purcell and others. And the very last part of the festival will take place by the lake where festive fireworks accompanied by Händel’s Music for the Royal Fireworks await the viewers.”
