Unforgettable melodies from Czech films performed by a symphonic wind orchestra -Kolja, The Dark Blue World, Grandma, The Hospital on the Outskirts and more - accompanied by a screening of film clips.
The Czech-Slovak symphonic wind orchestra Academia Moravia was founded in 2021 to preserve the rich tradition of Czech symphonic wind music, present it to the general public, and introduce it to the next generation of young musicians.
Symphonic wind music has a tradition spanning more than a century in our countries, and Academia Moravia aims to be one of the custodians of this rich national cultural heritage.
In terms of repertoire, Academia Moravia focuses primarily on original compositions for wind ensemble by Czech and Slovak composers, as well as on transcriptions of famous works from symphonic, musical, and film music. Compositions for solo instruments are also an integral part of the repertoire.
The orchestra is conducted by Václav Blahunek and Jozef Hepner; previously, the orchestra collaborated with conductors Martin Procházka, František Křepela, and Svetoslav Točev.
Program:
MUSIC FROM CZECH FILMS
The program includes, among others, compositions from the films *Kolja*, *The Dark Blue World*, *Grandmother*, *Hospital on the Outskirts*, and more…
The musical experience will be further enhanced by screenings of clips from the films from which the individual compositions are taken. The visuals and live music will thus merge into a single experience, evoking the stories and atmosphere of well-known works of Czech cinema.
