Founded by the teacher and broadcaster Miloslav Disman in 1935, it is celebrating its 70th birthday this year. The ensemble is attached to Czech Radio and all its members are children and teenagers. Every year it puts on plays, concerts and other performances, many of them for broadcast on Czech Radio. This summer six members of the ensemble were involved in a rather unusual exchange. They spent a week in the Japanese city of Kyoto - one of Prague's twin cities - on the invitation of a local radio station. Three teenagers from Kyoto also spent a week here in Prague. For the rest of today's edition of The Arts, I talk to the six ensemble members - Jiri Svorc, Lukas Prochazka, Jan Tyl, Jan Stepan, Jakub Gryc and Franta Med - who travelled to Kyoto about their impressions and experiences. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/letzel_hirosima_pamatnik.jpg?timestamp=1591468984 https://english.radio.cz/czech-teenagers-talk-about-their-impressions-hiroshima-and-kyoto-8628363 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
