Prague is awesome! I'm finding lots of jazz clubs and starting to explore them. I saw great Modern Jazz Quartet from Hamburg, Germany for my first night in Prague, the Gabriel Coburger Quartet. They were from Hamburg, I was coming from Hamburg, it seemed right. Gabriel plays the tenor and soprano sax and alto flute. I especially enjoyed his flute playing. The piano player also played vibraphones and a little piano that they say has no name. I find that hard to believe, but perhaps. I didn't get a good enough look to attempt to try to figure it out. The electric bass player also played guitar at times. The drummer was interesting. He had a kit and then a few percussion instruments. He played the triangle a lot, which I loved. I enjoyed him the most.
I like the space, it has a nice feel to it. Stone walls, little tables, nice vibe. I thought I would make it back, but that didn't happen. I had too much exploring to do. There are pictures of the club and the stage on their website. It's right by the Old Town Square, which is a great location if you are doing the tourist thing.
