My choir, Dr. Dauber with his wife and I myself, we were very
happy to participate in your festival in Prague.
Your competition was not only the finest and sucessful one but
the most beautiful one for us.
Once again, we want to congratulate you and your crew, Mr Pecival and Zdena Vasinova for your perfect organisation and very fine representation in wonderful buildings and places in your town.
We are planning to come to Prague again next year, my pupils are eager
to win a gold medal next year.

Once again I'd like to thank you for your hospitality and operability during all the period of our stay in Prague and participation in young2004prague Festival as well as in preparations to it. In our opinion, this festival was the most beautiful and exciting experience during the whole existence of our young choir - the amazing beauty of venue and all architectural monuments we had pleasure to visit (i.e. Old Town Hall and National Museum) will stay in our memory for a long time. As for organization of festival itself, it was done in efficient and consequent way (thank you for sensitive and and professional custody of our guide Ms Szymańska - she was really helpful in all circumstances). Despite of our our Bronze Level, we would like to thank all the members of jury for their extremely professional and consequent opinion - it will be of greatest use for us in our further work.

young2004prague is over. The festival was great success - both artistic and social and its further existence is bright. The festival became a cultural event which the capital city of Prague can rightly be proud of. The words of thanks to festival organisers who delivered excellent proffesional job. I am confident that the next festival – young2005prague- which shall take place 14-17 April 2005 will bring to our golden Prague at least the same number of enthuasiastic young musicians.

Well, the weather was the worst thing, I think, and I am sure you didn’t contribute to the rain and the cold. But apart from that, our students liked the festival very much, and they were very proud of returning home with a shared 1st and a shared 2nd prize. Next Tuesday there’ll be a small celebration of the orchestra and the choir at our school.

successful event!

We thought our experience at Young 2004 Prague was wonderful. Your city is really lovely and thank you for showing us inside all the beautiful buildings - it is certainly a 'Golden City!' We enjoyed hearing all the beautiful music at the concerts - these were great experiences for our children. We really loved the march and made a banner specailly for the occasion!
We really enjoyed ourselves and would be happy to encourage others to go.
Thank you for everything.
Best wishes
