When I was walking towards “Lažanský palác”, I've suddenly heard singing from old secession building in “Masarykovo nábřeží”, where the famous “Hlahol” choir is situated. The choir was established in 1861 and it was very important at that time. It performed a lot during prestigious events. After 1989 was its activity renew again.
