The best of Reduta: Louis Armstrong, Gershwin...

I visited the show with my partner during a tourist visit to Prague after seeing an advertisement for a jazz club on the website. I also found the program interesting. The very first impression in the lobby of the club disappointed me, as everything seemed disorganized (not enough staff to control the crowd of visitors). The ultimate disaster followed when we entered the club itself - a very overcrowded space into which three times as many visitors have been squeezed in as could be for a good experience of a jazz show. It was extremly hot in the room, without any ventilation and the feeling of no air at all. The visitors were crammed in like sardines, and it's no wonder that to top it all off, we got a COVID infection at the show (I can't prove it, but the visitor next to me snorted and sneezed the whole time, we got sick three days later). We didn't order drinks ourselves , but as I saw, it was a mess there too. The band was fine for a lay audience (I'm not a connoisseur) and the singer was relaxed, but it was clear that the heat and stuffy air didn't suit her either. My husband and I experienced the show nothing else than a torture and at the break we left the show. I think it's a shame that the organizer is trying to extract as much money as possible from tourists at the expense of comfort and a good concert atmosphere. I do not recommend this club to anyone.

Great musicians, loved the selections!
