Just Between Us: Rudy Linka & Gil Goldstein

Rudy Linka and Gil Goldstein will perform their musical dialogue Just Between Us in the Spanish Hall at Prague Castle on 15 October at 7:30pm.

"Just Between Us" is a musical dialogue between two musicians who need no introduction to the world of improvised music, where jazz, classical and folk music mix with a sense of melody and rhythm.
