A public concert from the Market Assembly Hall, Carlisle

Brno is a major industrial city about the size of Coventry. To politicians it is important as the capital of the Czechoslovakian province of Moravia; but to musicians it will always be known as the city where Janacek spent all his working life. The Brno Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1956. It has toured West Germany, the Soviet Union, and. recently, Italy and Belgium. This is the third time that the Orchestra has visited Britain.
