The Epiphany concert, which is organized by the Diocesan Charity Brno at the Music Stage of the Brno Municipal Theatre, serves as a way to thank the carol singers for their dedication and help in implementing the Epiphany collection. Another reason for organizing the concert is to present the Diocesan Charity projects, on which funds raised thanks to the Epiphany collection were spent, to the general public. During the concert, specific projects implemented thanks to the Epiphany collection will be presented. At the same time, the audience in the auditorium, as well as television viewers - since it will be a live recording broadcast by Czech Television - will have the opportunity to send gift DMS, which can be used to contribute to charity projects.

Ivo "Spyder" Křižan - an American musician of Czech origin, has played and collaborated with many prominent musicians such as Jeff Beck, Doug Lunn, Henri Bozzie, Mitch Mitchell and others. For many years he played in black club bands, especially in California, which were a great school of rhythm and blues for him. Spyder alternates his musical activities both abroad and on the Czech music scene, and his concert promises an extraordinary musical experience.

Throughout the theatre season, fans of the Brno Municipal Theatre can vote for their favourite actor, actress, director, designer, composer and individual production - especially musical and dramatic - through polls published in the magazine Dokořán. One of the January days in the theatre traditionally belongs to the ceremonial announcement of the results of the audience poll, which is called "Wings". Every such evening is in a festive spirit, every year is different, unrepeatable and, let us hope, unforgettable. The evening, not only full of brilliance, but also many surprises and interesting experiences, is an appreciation of the acting performances in the productions of the past season and, on the part of the actors, a thank you for the audience's support. Because the lights of the ramps only mentally separate two poles that are part of one world - the world of theatre, to which the actors on the stage and you, the audience in the auditorium, inherently belong. Even an evening with Wings is here especially for you.

Mark Guiliana drums, percussion One of the most prominent cross-genre drummers of our time has a portfolio that anyone could envy. His services have been used by, among others, Avishai Cohen, Brad Mehldau, St. Vincent, David Bowie, Meshell Ndegeocello, Gretchen Parlato, Lionel Loueke and Tigran Hamasyan. But he also has his own solo career and will come to Brno as its protagonist. Mark Guiliana was born in 1980 in New Jersey and attended William Paterson University, where he graduated in jazz in 2003. However, he has a cross-genre, rather conceptual approach to the instrument, thanks to which he was able to create the electric duo Mehliana with Brad Mehldau, who plays synthesizers. Probably Guiliana's most famous work is the album Blackstar, the last work of one of the greatest geniuses of popular music, David Bowie. His playing style is truly "wide-ranging", he has perfectly mastered acoustic jazz playing, he can add rock or funk intensity and directness to his playing, as well as play with the colors of electronic instruments and unusual rhythms typical of progressive and avant-garde music.

Music Lab pilot project.

The Hello Marcel duo slowly took shape during 2017, when the boys Adam Sodomka and Michael Macek (alias Šmáca), friends from the Svitavy grammar school, hit it off so hard that they got the idea to form a Czech disco band.

In February 2018, they released their debut album Marcel, named after their funny and inspiring friend. After a busy year, they managed to finish 9 songs and outline the early dance vision of this tandem group. Cringe Prince is a bedroom MC. Originally from Ústí nad Labem and now from Prague. He releases artifacts into the world that you can sniff with headphones. On stage, he lights rap, lets it burn and throws its remains on his head. Come and see for yourself. It's a ritual.

PROTHEUS TOUR SPRING 2026 host: Gate Crasher

doors open: 18:00

concert starts: 19:00

Spring in the sign of joy of life and music That's what the six spring concerts of the rock band Protheus could be called. They will follow up on the successful autumn tour for the new album "The World of People". There will really be "only" six concerts and they will be all the more exclusive. Protheus promises a new show full of audiovisual effects and pyrotechnics. Unlike in the autumn, the band will no longer play the entire new album, there will be space for both new songs and proven hits. "We want to celebrate the joy of life and music together with our fans, in a big way! We will do our best to ensure that everyone leaves our concerts full of energy and good mood to the brim. Not a single pair of panties will stay dry." This is how frontman Protheus summarized the tour plans. Considering that the band chose a similar concept and location last spring and that virtually all concerts were sold out, we recommend that you do not hesitate to buy a ticket. The first wave at the best price is just starting.
