smetana_unveiled_exploring_the_man_the_music_and


In celebration of the bicentenary of Czech composer Bedřich Smetana, learn about the mysteries surrounding his life and work.

Delve into Smetana's fascinating journey as we explore his tumultuous life, his unwavering nationalist spirit, and his enduring impact on the Czech musical heritage. From the heartrending strains of his orchestral works to the poignant tales woven into his operas, Smetana's oeuvre captures the essence of Czech identity and resilience.
A distinguished panel of experts features Jan Smaczny, emeritus professor at Queen's University Belfast, Dr. Thomas Jaermann, composer and musicologist, and Sandra Bergmannová, Director of the Bedřich Smetana Museum.
In addition, Tomáš Hanus, Music Director of Welsh National Opera will discuss (via ZOOM from Brno) the latest production of Smetana's opera Dalibor, directed by Sir David Pountney in Brno, which he conducted. Chaired by John Allison, Editor of Opera magazine.


Part of the Year of Czech Music and Smetana 2024.
Organised by Czech Centre London in collaboration with the Czech Tourism.
