A series of six classical music concerts 6in5 is returning to the Community Space Smichov, and will occur already for the third time. This year's edition will open on October the 2nd with a concert subtitled Forever Your Mozart by Bronislava Smržová Tomanová, Ahmad Hedar and Lukáš Hurník. This musical and literary evening will be dedicated to the life and music of W. A. Mozart. The love for his beloved wife he had, will be illustrated by reading his letters. The series will close in December with the Bennewitz Quartet, which, according to the world magazine Gramophone, is "amazing, with a perfect balance of warmth and objective purity." They will perform classical music pieces by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, the trio known as the first Viennese school.
The third year of the concert series will be varied. It explores various musical traditions and styles. It will present the music of specific nations, composers (among others also connected to Prague 5) and will guide listeners through the world of contemporary music. The program will also include an audiovisual work by composers Lukáš Janata and Karolína Trhoňová or the premiere of a composition by a student Jakub Chráska. Before the concerts, there will be an accompanying program called Entrée, which will allow listeners to better understand the context of the presented works.
The Six in Five project offers a series of six classical music concerts that combine musical experiences with educational accompanying programs. These programs allow personal contact with the artists and provide a deeper understanding of the compositions and their authors. The concerts are held in a renovated Evangelical church, whose exceptional acoustics and atmosphere create an intimate environment for listening to quality chamber classical music.

"Six in Five" continues the musical tradition of the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren in Smíchov. The project aims to produce high-quality music, share, dialogue, encourage Prague citizens and provide therapy through live classical music. The project expands the program of the Community Space Smíchov, which has become a centre of cultural, social and educational activities for the general public in Prague 5.
