Bohuslav Martinů Days 2021 | Concert of laureates of the BMF Competition

28. 11. 2021 / 7:30–9:00 p.m.
Liechtenstein Palace, Martinů Hall

This year’s music contest revisits the categories of cello and voice after four years. Young musicians will compete for the jury’s favour on 26 and 27 November, and the best of them will perform at the Sunday concert. The repertoire requirements mandate a composition by Bohuslav Martinů, a work of a Czech composer written after 1960, and something from the classical canon of the eighteenth and nineteenth century.
