The South Bohemian Chamber Philharmonic and Gustav Brom's Big Band will perform them in a world premiere on Sunday, December 6 with conductor Jan Talich, Vladimír Valovič and pianist Jan Simon. The concert will also feature jazz standards and an original arrangements of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue.
