Do you like to flip through the calendar? Do you sometimes daydream when you look at it and imagine what happened on that day exactly 100, 150, 200… years ago? Do you enjoy anniversaries, preferably round ones, and holidays? We do, and accordingly we have also prepared a series of family concerts in the 2024/2025 season. We will commemorate important anniversaries of premieres of compositions, births of composers, musical events, holidays and so on, which are related to the respective period in which the concert takes place. The main dramaturge (the one who selects the compositions) is therefore time. And in a way you will be too, because we will give you the opportunity to choose one song for each concert – democratically, of course. Come with us to create, listen and have fun.

One hundred years ago, on 31 January 1925, the world premiere of the ballet Who is the Most Powerful in the World? Bohuslav Martinů. The fairy tale story about mice was performed together with Osvald Chlubna’s opera Alladina and Palomides, but in the very next performance the young composer’s ballet found itself in the company of the Brno master Janáček, when it was performed in one evening together with the opera The Cunning Little Vixen. The latter was premiered in Brno two months earlier, on 6 November 1924, and in 1965 it also opened the new building of the Janáček Theatre.

For children, a music workshop is prepared in the foyer of the Besední dům from 12:15 pm (free admission and no registration). At the same time, adults can attend an expert lecture by musical guests.

 

The concert can be purchased as part of a full subscription at the Ticket office of Filharmonie Brno on Besední Street and online from 27 May 2024.
The concert will be sold separately from 17 June 2024.
