Nestled in the heart of Central Europe, the Czech Nestled in the heart of Central Europe, the Czech Republic is a beautiful country with a rich music history, delicious cuisine, historic cities, and a long tradition of festivals. 

Prague, the Czech capital, dates back 1,100 years and has been incredibly well-preserved (unlike many other European cities, it largely avoided serious damage during WWII). 

In the heart of the city you'll find a wide variety of stunning architectural achievements from the Gothic (like the Church of our Lady before Tyn) to the the Baroque (like St. Nicholas Church) to the Renaissance (like Schwarzenberg Palace). You can even find elements of Art Nouveau at the Municipal House -- a building that houses the renowned Smetana Hall.

The Czech Republic is home to a number of world-class composers (including Dvorak, Smetana, and Janacek) and it's a can't miss destination for any music lover. We can't wait to get back there!

One of the most charming cities in Italy, Florence One of the most charming cities in Italy, Florence is filled with incredible art, music, food, history and architecture. Despite being the capital city of the Tuscany region, Florence is much calmer than many other major Italian cities, and maintains an almost "small town" feel.

Birthplace of the Renaissance, Florence is home to the Uffizi Gallery; one of the most famous art galleries in the world with pieces by Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Botticelli and many others.

It was also in Florence that the Florentine Camerata experimented with setting stories from Greek mythology to music. The first significant composer to fully develop these principles was Jacopo Peri, whose opera Dafne (1594) is widely considered to be the first opera ever performed.

We might not be able to travel right now, but we can’t wait to hop on a plane again and explore incredibly cities like Florence once again!

The land of exquisite cuisine, style, and culture, The land of exquisite cuisine, style, and culture, France is one of the most popular destinations for our touring ensembles. With glorious gardens, picturesque villages, thousands of museums, delicious wine, and majestic chateaux, France provides the perfect backdrop for any ensemble's overseas excursion.

While no trip would be complete without a trip to Paris, there are a number of must-see regions including The Loire Valley, Provence, Normandy and Cote d'Azur. We might not be able to travel right now, but we can’t wait to hop on a plane again for our next great adventure!
