WILL VINSON & AARON PARKS

10/03/25, 19:00 / Besední dům Concert Hall

Saxophonist Will Vinson and pianist Aaron Parks have been meeting in various formations for twenty years. Now the time has come for them to try the most intimate and, according to many musicians, the most difficult thing: the format of just a duo. For his needs, they adapted their older warehouse by and supplement the concert program with classic jazz material, which, however, they present with a highly personal, original contribution. The joint chamber performance of such experienced musicians of the middle jazz generation will undoubtedly be a very powerful experience not only from a purely musical point of view, but also in the sense of perfect mutual communication between creators who have been "listening to each other" for a long time.

Shaun Banks

10/03/25, 20:00 / Jazz bar U kouřícího králíka

Playing guitar and foot drums simultaneously, accompanied by his powerful and colorful voice with bluesy harmonica fills makes for a great, live show.

Nine Crosses

11/03/25, 18:00 / Hudební scéna Městského divadla Brno (Music Theatre)

The musical Nine Crosses, written especially for our theater, tells an old Moravian legend about a cruel act that, according to chronicles, took place around 1540 in a small village near Velká Bíteš. A landowner from Hluboké finds the lifeless body of a man on his way home from the market in Bíteš. He takes it home, and the young foreigner - a Hungarian horse trader - recovers after a while. He falls in love with the landowner's daughter Eliška, but the father does not even want to hear about dowries. The stranger binds Eliška with a promise of loyalty and leaves to sell his estates in Hungary and return with the money for his bride. However, time passes and Luka does not return. Eliška thus succumbs to the insistence of her father and others to marry the miller's son. On the wedding day, Luka returns from Hungary and soon learns about the revelry. Crazy with rage, he swears revenge, which he will eventually carry out together with the gamekeeper Kudla. Together they wait for the wedding procession on the road near Hluboký and end the lives of the wedding guests, including the landowner, Eliška and others. In the end, he takes his mate and himself out of the world. When the other wedding guests catch up, they see a horrible scene. Nine dead bodies. In their memory, nine crosses will be erected at the site of the terrible crime, so that this story of great love and great grudge will never fade from the soil of the Highlands.

JazzFestBrno: Kamasi Washington

18/03/25, 19:30 / Sono Centrum

The inspiration for the as-yet-untitled fourth studio album is Czech songwriting, old rumors, life and death. The album is released in early spring 2025.

BIOHAZARD & LIFE OF AGONY / special guests

19/03/25, 18:00 / Sono Centrum

In 1987, the harsh reality of urban life in New York's Brooklyn gave birth to one of the pioneering and even revolutionary bands that were not afraid to boldly combine the incompatible at the time: hip-hop and hardcore metal.

They teamed up with LIFE OF AGONY, who are also an essential name of the New York music scene of the early 90s!

The Orchestral Academy of the Brno Philharmonic (OAFB) is a project that enables young talented musicians – students or recent graduates of music schools accepted on the basis of a selection process – to gain orchestral practice in a professional ensemble. In this way, the Philharmonic trains new generations of players who may one day join its ranks. The OAFB has been operating for six seasons and its fruits are already evident: some of its graduates are already members of our orchestra, others regularly return to help out. The importance and value of this experience for the artistic growth of young musicians and for the future of the orchestra is thus indisputable.

JazzFestBrno: Jojo Mayer – Me/Machine

19/03/25, 19:30 / Divadlo Husa na provázku (Goose on a String Theatre)

Although he was born in Switzerland, which, admittedly, is not exactly a jazz powerhouse, if you don't count the Montreux festival, of course, he had a good family background for music. When he was allowed to play the first children's drum kit at home at the age of two, and he barely had enough time to explore musically, he was already sitting on the drum stool in his father's band, a professional bassist. At eighteen, he got his first professional engagement in the band of Jamaican jazz pianist Monty Alexander, with whom he completed a European tour of major festivals and even managed to accompany such stars as Dizzy Gillespie or Nina Simone on one occasion.

19/03/25, 20:00 / Kabinet múz (The Cabinet of Muses)

The inspiration for the as-yet-untitled fourth studio album is Czech songwriting, old rumors, life and death. The album is released in early spring 2025.

My Fair Lady (from Zelňák)

20/03/25, 18:00 / Hudební scéna Městského divadla Brno (Music Theatre)

The famous American musical, which was created based on the well-known theater play Pygmalion by G. B. Shaw. The now classic musical title, which premiered on Broadway in 1956 (a year before Bernstein's famous musical West Side Story, which has been in the repertoire of the City Theater for several years), tells the well-known story of the flower girl Liza Doolittle, who undergoes a transformation into a self-confident young lady… The fact that Líza and her father, the garbage collector Alfréd Doolittle, speak in the original English dialect Cockney, inspired the author of the adaptation and the director Stanislav Moša to transfer the play to the Brno environment and to use the local dialect, the Brno hantec. This is how My Fair Lady was born with the nickname from Zelňák, because the character of Líza moved from the original London market, Covent Garden, to Brno's Zelný trh. It is not just a linguistic innovation, but also a shift to local realities. And so the characters in the introduction are not from the Royal Opera, but from the Reduta, where they did not play Verdi's Aida, but the folk operetta On the Green Meadow...

Slanted blanket + guest

25/03/25, 19:00 / Jazz bar U kouřícího králíka

We're all about playing bluegrass, especially in G, fast and loud. We do it because we enjoy it - and there are those who claim that it shows in us. The repertoire consists of melodies taken from American bluegrass and newgrass bands, but we also like to play classic country hits or songs from the repertoire of Czech rock and blues musicians. Since our English is not the most refined, and we are closer to a Moravian cellar than to a prairie with blue grass, we use Czech texts by our "court" lyricists Richard Málk, Richard Lukes, Petra Švecová and others for the English songs.
