After a successful concert tour in Prague, Olomouc, Litomysl, Horice and Ricany with his Czech colleague Richard Pachman in October 2008, François Glorieux has been officially invited by Pavel Bém, Lord Mayor of Prague at the city hall on the 19th of January 2009 and received the "Official Memorial Medal of the city of Prague".

The same evening François Glorieux was special guest for the great concert celebrating the 40th anniversary of Jan Palach's death and performed the Prague "première" of his compositions "In Memoriam Jan Palach", "Hymna pro Prahu" and the complete suite "Praha" by conducting the brass and percussion of the Czech Republic Army.
He also played his two works "Nightfall on Prague" and "Vinohrady" with violinist Jaroslav Sveceny as well as his piano improvisation on the famous "Vltava" and other works with Richard Pachman.
