THE GREAT ICONIC COMPOSITIONS

The Celtic mysteries are reflected in the tones of the harp from the Danube to the Bohemian Paradise in the mystics of their druids, and the magic of karpsats and  alps  meets genius loci. The Krzesany is a dance with stylised steps from the Podhale region, with the typical touch of the heels when springing up to the dancing melodies in the typical flinging rhythm.

The festival is the only one in the Czech Republic to systematically introduce the best of classical music from the V4 countries, including the launching of young stars of classical music. Three concerts were held in.The year 2018/2019 to celebrate the chairmanship of the Czech Republic in the Visegrad group. This is a sequel after the pandemic interplay. Colourful and poetic, dancing as well as rhapsodic, thematically consistent and interesting for the audiences, all this makes up an evening of music of the Central European region, featuring the leading interpreters from the V4 countries.
