Recorded at 12 noon on Sunday, December 19, right in front of Antonín Dvořák's tomb. The bells are ringing from the Saint Peter and Paul cathedral. The Vyšehrad cemetery, adjacent to the Church of Sts Peter and Paul, is one of the most significant cemeteries in Prague. Over 600 famous people are buried here – writers, scientists, poets, artists, composers, actors, doctors, politicians, and others.
