How to get to Prague?
The Czech Christmas Mass, popularly known as "Rybovka", is a purely Czech phenomenon. Without it, it is impossible to imagine the Christmas holidays, and the performance of Rybovka gathers many listeners and performers in churches and concert halls these days.
Written "Fish" more than two centuries ago, a simple Czech teacher Jakub Jan Ryba. The name of Pisces is associated with the town of Rozhmital-Pod-Treshmushin in Central Bohemia, where he lived from 1788 until the tragic finale of his life. There in 1796 his “Czech Christmas Mass” was born. It is not by chance called the Czech language - after all, it is one of the first liturgical works created in the Czech language. As the composer himself emphasized, "psalms in Latin do not benefit the faith, neither those who sing, nor those who listen."
The difficult financial situation of a large family, illness and depression led to a sad end - in 1815. Yakub Ryba committed suicide.
The name Yakub Yana Pisces remains in the history of Czech and world music, and his legacy is not limited to Mass - he composed sonatas, quartets, symphonies, wrote compositions on music theory, lyrics, libretto, translated from Latin and Greek
