On Tour

Head to the Czech Museum of Music for an exhibition mapping the history and present of musical travel!

A musician’s livelihood is built on diligence, their technical knowledge of playing, and their talent. But what is the use of daily practice and talent without the ability to reach an audience?

Come behind the scenes of the music industry and go on a concert tour with us. How did music travel from the Czech Lands to the world and back again?

Stars go on tour, itinerant musicians wander from town to town, some musical nomads may not even have a permanent home. They travel by land, air, and sea, on foot and by saloon carriage, and spend the night roughing it and in luxury hotels. As well as a way of making a living, travelling offers a number of stimuli, inspiration and the opportunity to see distant lands.
