Musical celebration of the century-old relationship between the Czechoslovaks and the Americans 1918-2018

The foundation of Czechoslovakia is celebrated throughout the United States throughout 2018, including Cedar Rapids, Chicago, Houston and Washington. From the very beginning, the United States strongly supported the founding of Czechoslovakia, and the cultural exchanges between the two nations were so strong that they were still going on. During this festive evening, American tenor Benjamin Berman and pianist Timothy Cheek give up this centennial anniversary with pieces of musical personalities such as Antonín Dvořák, music arranger of the spirituals Harry T. Burleigh, Bohuslav Martinů, Jaroslav Ježek, George Gershwin, and even less important Brno composers Vítězslava Kaprálová and Erich Wolfgang Korngold.
