Prague vacation

I recently returned from a 10-day visit to Prague in the Czech Republic, as part of a church choir tour. I am a member of the St. Ann Choir, which sings Gregorian chant and Renaissance polyphony as part of the Catholic liturgy. We were invited to Prague by a former choir member, and spent the 10 days singing daily mass (various propers and motets, plus masses of Lasso, Byrd, Senfl, Josquin, and Victoria) in many churches in the city of Prague, with the help of local priests (saying mass in either czech or latin). Our schedule was on this poster which was distributed throughout the city.


I will be gradually posting pictures that I took while in Prague, using a recently purchased Canon SD600. To start, I have two (composite) photos of the Lesser Town, Prague Castle (prominently St. Vitus Cathedral), the Vtlava (Moldau) River, and the Charles Bridge.
