A concert under the guise of secrecy
Soothing and energetic motivating music on the border of many musical styles performed by the well-known ensemble of the Moravian Piano Trio - Jana Ryšánková - piano, Jiří Jahoda - violin, Miroslav Zicha - cello with an engaging witty commentary by its principal Jiří Jahoda with an attractive program in the halls of the Rubín Cultural House and Boarding house. On the way out, there is still a glass of wine during an informal meeting with the artists - you can only experience all this at Muzikobraní concerts.
JazzFestBrno: Dianne Reeves
It would probably be enough to say that she is the winner of five Grammy Awards in the field of jazz singing, and nothing would need to be added. A throat certified with so many honors kind of speaks for itself. And he doesn't just speak, he also sings brilliantly.
Coco Chanel
The story of visionary creativity that changed the way women dress. Coco Chanel as fearlessness, fierceness and risk, as well as taste, philosophy and brand. Contemporary ballet by Mário Radačovský about a woman who fundamentally influenced the world of fashion. The second, spring premiere of the 2023/2024 season, completes artistic director Mário Radačovský's ten-year tenure at the helm of the Ballet NdB. As a choreographer, in the past he liked to devote himself to full-length titles inspired by the life and work of great personalities of human cultural history. We can recall the titles of the ballets Warhol, Beethoven, Michelangelo.
JazzFestBrno: Kamasi Washington
One of the most iconic personalities of the contemporary jazz scene, personifying its changeability and intertwining with other genres, proving that if something is not current jazz, it is an unexciting soundtrack to the coffee of aunts sitting on spa colonnades.
post-music (baptism)
The post-music pop duo will christen their fourth album within two dates at the Cabinet of Muses. post-music returns to its musical roots and rediscovers folk, dirty guitars, grainy noise and abstract lyrics. Choruses have not disappeared, but they come unexpectedly and sometimes break into nothingness. 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
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. BIOHAZARD, similar to what happened in Prague with Downset, will not come to Brno alone. They teamed up with LIFE OF AGONY, who are also an essential name of the New York music scene of the early 90s!
YOUNG BLOOD or MUSIC CLOSE UP III
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.
Tomáš Toman & Ján Kicko a The Winter Sounds
Tomáš Toman is a singer-songwriter from the Giant Mountains. In his songs, he wanders through the landscapes of his heart, looks into the present and past face of the Krkonoše Mountains, tells stories from the hidden corners of the mountains and tries to raise his gaze to places where it is impossible to see and to things that are usually invisible to the eye. He will be accompanied on guitar by Ján Kicko from the band Hmlisto.
Coco Chanel
The story of visionary creativity that changed the way women dress. Coco Chanel as fearlessness, ferocity and risk, as well as taste, philosophy and brand. Contemporary ballet by Mário Radačovský about a woman who fundamentally influenced the world of fashion.
JazzFestBrno: Jojo Mayer – Me/Machine
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.
post-hudba (baptism)
The post-music pop duo will christen their fourth album within two dates at the Cabinet of Muses. post-music returns to its musical roots and rediscovers folk, dirty guitars, grainy noise and abstract lyrics. Choruses have not disappeared, but they come unexpectedly and sometimes break into nothingness. 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.
The Marriage of Figaro
Without borders or beyond the border? How long will Rosina and Almaviva's true love last, which was supposed to be forever, and when will the innocent flirtation with Cherubin turn into something much more serious? Where are the boundaries in human relationships... After the successful production of Handel's Alcina, the top orchestra Collegium 1704 returns to the Brno theater under the baton of Václav Luks to, together with the director Jiří Heřman, set out to discover the beauty of Mozart's music and his opera, which enjoys unceasing popularity all over the world. And it's no wonder, because The Marriage of Figaro, in addition to the brilliant and sparkling music, which will sweep you away with its incessant flow similar to a mountain stream, also boasts an almost dramatic libretto. And how could it not be, when the basis for Da Ponte was the play of the same name by the excellent French playwright Pierre de Beaumarchais.
My Fair Lady (from Zelňák)
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...

In September 2023, Jakub released his first solo album Hvězdy at Animal Music, which was jointly produced by Petr Ostrouchov and Aid Kid.

Australian hard rockers Airbourne are coming to Brno! Known for their uncompromising energy and wild live shows, this four piece band will get your blood pumping with their fifth studio album 'Boneshaker'. The record is a celebration of raw, authentic rock 'n' roll, inspired by the classics of the late 70s - a time when technology wasn't the driving force behind the show, when it was all about energy and authentic spirit and performance; when tape recorders still gave recordings extra warmth and weight, and when perfection was not sought, but compositions that work on an emotional, primal, visceral level, exposing the raw and harsh beauty of the rock'n'roll lifestyle. Turn it up! Leave a mark!

Slanted blanket + guest
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.

Così fan tutte
Do not test relationships, you risk that your girlfriend devotes her feelings to someone else or Mozart full of eroticism on the stage of the Mahen Theater. The complex relationships between men and women await you through the eyes of the young director Anna Petrželková. That's how they all are, or The School of Lovers, that's the title of the third opera, which was created from the artistic partnership of librettist Lorenzo da Ponte and composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a story about a seemingly harmless bet on female fidelity. But nothing is ever black and white in human relationships, and this is especially true in this opera. Mozart actually followed up on the previous works Don Giovanni and The Marriage of Figaro, which are difficult to put into a precise box - they always give us a mischievous smile in the middle of the drama, and on the contrary, tears and anger are rarely hidden behind the laughter.
