Prčice
 
    This organ of Bedřich Semrád, a native of Prčice, is, like most of his instruments, of a very good sound quality. The beautiful Gothic church is open for visitors and it is possible to get there on foot in the famous Prague Prčice Race. The restoration was complicated, owing to the great number of changes and additions. The later addition of a positive on the balcony is the work of Josef Carda, the last person to work at Semrád’s workshop. I was helped in the voicing and restoration by the expert and admirer of Semrád, the organ builder Vladimír Šlajch, whose help I value even more considering he was unsuccessful in the tender for the work.
