The best Czech violinists of the young generation will come from the world’s stages to charm Krumlov’s audience. Together with another exceptional Czech soloist, Miroslav Sekera, they will perform a repertoire made up of the gems of the 20th century, which has been composed for this ensemble. In addition to challenging compositions by Leoš Janáček, Igor Stravinsky, or Sergei Prokofiev, the audience will also hear Much Ado About Nothing by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, a Brno native, who conquered Hollywood with his film music in the middle of the last century.
