WAITING FOR SPRING AND PEACE

One of the key contributions of the Brno Philharmonic Season 2023/2024 to the Year of Czech Music 2024 will be offering great vocal-instrumental works by Jan Novák and Antonín Rejcha – two forgotten exiled composers whose music the Brno Philharmonic has been trying to revive regularly on the concert stage and on recordings in recent years ( on her own label she released Rejch's cantata Lenora in 2020 and an album with three Novák symphonic works in 2022).
