A gala concert to mark the 75th anniversary of the Janáček Academy of Performing Arts will take place at the Besední dům. The evening will include performances by students of the Faculty of Music and Theatre. The 161 performers will also include alumni, teachers and other guests. Under the baton of conductor Jakub Klecker, compositions by Leoš Janáček, Antonín Dvořák and Robert Schuman will be performed by the Janáček Academic Orchestra and the JAMU Choir.
"The main focus of the programme is on works by Czech and Moravian composers, Antonín Dvořák's Te Deum and Leoš Janáček's Sinfonietta, which is inseparable from our academy," says conductor Jakub Klecker, who became chief conductor of the Moravian Philharmonic in 2019. The programme will also include Schumann's Piano Concerto performed by pianist Pavel Zemen. Soloists Ivana Pavlů and Tadeáš Hoza will also perform. The gala concert is announced for 16 October 2022 at 17:00 in the Besední dům.
During the concert, the Rector Petr Michálek will present gold medals to important personalities who have contributed to the development of the Academy. Among the recipients of the award are professors Jan Gogola, Jan Hančil, Miroslav Jelínek, Ivo Medek, Václav Kunt and conductor Jan zbavitel. At the same time, the Rector of the Academy will christen a magnificent publication entitled ...always contributing with your bracelet..., which is dedicated to nineteen holders of the title doctor honoris causa of the Janáček Academy.
