He who sleeps sometimes knows more than he can explain on a waking day. Our dreams, secret wishes, hidden fears and the whole panopticon of inner life will be heard in the magical atmosphere of Pernštejn Castle. The invitation of the leading mezzo-soprano Markéta Cukrová was accepted not only by the excellent luthier Jan Krejča, but also by the phenomenal harpist Kateřina Ghannudi, an expert on historical harps, who will bring with her her Italian story in the magical colors of an unusual instrument. In addition to Elizabethan England and Rudolfinian Prague, we present the third cultural power of the time around 1600: Italy. We will not find a female queen there as in England, but the program of the evening does not lack an excellent female composer. Barbara Strozzi sang and composed so revolutionary that in her time she was already a recognized ornament of her country.
