We care for cultural heritage, artistic education, and young musical talent.

Dvořák Prague

Our foundation is the founder and main patron of the Dvořák Prague International Music Festival. This prestigious cultural event brings together top soloists, conductors, orchestras, and chamber ensembles every year. The audience can always look forward not only to famous works by Dvořák but also to compositions by other world‑renowned composers.

Pianos for Schools

We help schools on their journey to a new piano. Join us in bringing joy to teachers, parents, and, most importantly, children!

Pianos for Schools Supports Talented Artists

The Pianos for Schools Supporting Talented Artists Scholarship Fund is one of our newest initiatives. We do not only support talented young musicians financially—our goal is to help them systematically and long‑term in building their careers. Gifted individuals receive guidance from top mentors and have the opportunity to develop their skills in masterclasses and perform in concerts both at home and abroad.

Supporting Activities for Children

Help children from financially struggling families so they can spend their free time actively and among their friends.

Kennedy Center

In 2018, we supported the construction of The REACH, a new building at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. This modern structure offers multifunctional spaces, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the world of art naturally. We contributed $5 million to the project, ensuring a lasting Czech cultural presence at the Kennedy Center.

Václav Havel Library: Havel Channel

In 2020, we became a partner of the Václav Havel Library. We help promote the legacy and ideas of the first president of the independent Czech Republic, who dedicated his life to the development of civil society, freedom, and democracy. Specifically, we support the Havel Channel audiovisual platform.

Concertino Praga

In line with our mission, we have been a partner of the international multi‑disciplinary music competition Concertino Praga since 2019. Organized by the Academy of Classical Music and Český Rozhlas, the competition aims to discover exceptional talents under the age of 16 and support their further education and professional development. The competition final is always held as part of the Dvořák Prague Festival.

Antonín Dvořák Prize

The prestigious award is presented by the Academy of Classical Music, of which we have been the main patron since 2009. Each year, we jointly honor individuals, artist groups, and entire institutions for their exceptional artistic achievements or their contributions to promoting Czech classical music both at home and abroad.

Verbier Festival

We support the festival held each summer in the picturesque Swiss mountain town of Verbier. This event strengthens the artistic community across generations and offers visitors exceptional cultural experiences. The festival features performances by solo musicians, chamber ensembles, and vocalists.

Website about Antonín Dvořák

The personality of Antonín Dvořák remains an endless source of inspiration. That is why the Academy of Classical Music has created an online encyclopedia dedicated to the life and work of this renowned Czech composer. It is the largest online encyclopedia of its kind in the world. The Dvořák Encyclopedia, available in both Czech and English, is sure to delight all classical music enthusiasts interested in the composer's artistic legacy.
