About us
Police Symphony Orchestra
We are a bunch of musicians, singers, volunteers and heartthrobs called the Police Symphony Orchestra. Police as in Police nad Metuji, a small town on the outskirts of Czechia where we come from. We were founded there in 2010 by siblings Petra and Jakub Soukupovi. Most of the 150 members are not professional musicians, but enthusiasts who play with gusto and heart. In our repertoire you will find various musical genres – popular music, film music, rock, swing and classical. Currently, Joel Hana, Jachym Svoboda and Krystof Koska wield the conductor's baton in the PSO. Orchestral works are complemented by a choir, led by choirmaster Lukas Hrubes, and a trio of permanent singers – Josef Feco, Vendula Prihodova and Karolina Soukupova.
We bring hundreds of people together through music, helping and creating unforgettable experiences together. We have sold out Lucerna, performed on safari, played on the railway stations, in the amplifiers of city radio stations across the country, in the giant chapitó and O2 Arena, in the rocks, at Křižík's fountain or at the Grand Finale of Smetana Litomyšl. We are also happy to support fundraising projects, through which we have already donated over EUR 118 600 to help those in need.
