Key to Home

The Hradišťan dance ensemble and the Brno Youth Symphony Orchestra will present a unique program entitled Key to Home, which pays tribute to the legacy of our world-famous composers – Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, Leoš Janáček, Vítězslav Novák, and Bohuslav Martinů – and presents them in a new, lively, and moving interpretation, where artificial music meets folk tradition. In a colorful mosaic of music and dance, stories of life, joy, loss, rituals, and hope come to life. All this in a magical energy that connects us to our roots and opens the way home.
