Hele Wāwae | Festival zone

Original project by percussionist Antonín Procházka in the Monastery garden

Hele Wāwae is driven by a strong rhythm section. The duo of drummers, Antonín Procházka and Matěj Diviš, perform not only on the drum kit and vibraphone, but also on traditional ethnic percussion instruments, which they combine with modern drums to create unique, sonically colourful multi-percussive sets. The third drummer in the band could be considered pianist Jan Pudlák, whose distinctive preparation turns his piano into an endless reservoir of playful, percussive sounds. This rhythmic jungle is held tightly together by Brazilian double bassist Luan Gonçalves, and the whole group is rounded out by Nela Dusová on saxophones and Jan Jirucha on trombone, distinctive players, improvisers and great composers.

In the music of Hele Wāwae, Procházka's classical school of classical music meets the West African musical tradition, minimal music, British modern jazz and electronic dance music.

Free entry.

Hele Wāwae will perform as part of the accompanying programme of the 33rd edition of Krumlov Festival in the Festival zone in the Monastery Garden.
