Přání. New single by Nebeztebe

The single Přání (Wish) by the Brno-based Nebeztebe band presents their upcoming album Zásobování duše (Supply of the Soul).

The single was released on the web at Supraphonline.cz and on YouTube, where, in addition to the song itself, there is also a video clip. In the ballad Přání (Wish), Nebeztebe combined the silent New Year´s Eve poem by Martina Holánková with the New Year's lyrics and music by the band's frontman Štěpán Sundream. "Přání (Wish) is the most beautiful proof of the creative power of our minds. It prevents change and is the most intimate gift we can give to ourselves and others. At the turn of the calendar, we decided to open an inconspicuous New Year's story that can touch the heart and soul," says Štěpán Sundream. In addition to Přání (Wish), Nebeztebe will offer another eight songs on its multi-genre album. Among them, for example, the instrumental song Robin v dešti (Robin in the Rain), the almost hip-hop Zvonkohra (Carillon), the soaring final opus Racek (Seagull) and the final dance Srdcovka (Heartbeat Song). The individual songs are connected by interludes and, in addition to Czech, English and Russian will also be heard on the album. "The album grows from darkness and dark to dawn and has its grand finale. Supply of the Soul has a turning point in it, which comes together with the last singing in the single Přání (Wish),” adds Štěpán.

For several years now, Nebeztebe has been building its own sound world, combining elements of acoustic, beat, folk, fusion and pop with the composition of classical and film music. With their fragility and freedom, their new songs belong to the imaginary creative space of foreign authors such as Sting and Enya, and from domestic ones, Dan Bárta & Illustratosphere or Roman Dragoun. In the past, the band has released singles such as Něžné přepadení (Gentle Assault), Cikánská (Gypsy Song) and Babylon (Babel). Nebeztebe became more widely known with their success at the oldest Czech music “Porta” festival, where in 2013 they won the South Moravian round and two years later the national round. The basis of this musical trio is the author, singer and multi-instrumentalist Štěpán Sundream, who also plays guitar, bass and rhythm line. Above them, Tereza Šlahařová's singing grows into vocal ensembles, and her string sections on the violin show a fully utilised classical music education. In line with this, the mandolin of Jan "Yetty" Vrtěna is heard, so with his experimental approach, he lets the music get to a bigger rock at the right time. However, the current Nebeztebe does not end there. While working on the album, other electronic sounds and effects from the workshop of producer Honza Shanny Fňukal were added to the original sound, while mastering is the work of Boris Carloff.

Connection, unity, contemplation - these words can be used to describe the musical evening of Schola Gregoriana Pragensis under the direction of David Eben and organist Tomáš Thon, which took place yesterday as part of the Easter Festival of Sacred Music at the church of St. Thomas. Not only the singing of a Gregorian chant, but also the works of composer Petr Eben (1929-2007) enlivened the church space with sound and colour for an hour.  more

With a concert called Ensemble Inégal: Yesterday at the church of St. John, Zelenka opened the 31st edition of the Easter Festival of Sacred Music, this time with the suffix Terroir. This slightly mysterious word, which is popularly used in connection with wine, comes from the Latin word for land or soil, and carries the sum of all the influences, especially the natural conditions of a particular location and on the plants grown there. This term is thus metonymically transferred to the programme of this year's VFDH, as it consists exclusively of works by Czech authors, thus complementing the ongoing Year of Czech Musicmore

For the fourth subscription concert of the Philharmonic at Home serieswhich took place on 14 March at the Besední dům and was entitled Mozartiana, the Brno Philharmonic, this time under the direction of Czech-Japanese conductor Chuhei Iwasaki, chose four works from the 18th to 20th centuries. These works are dramaturgically linked either directly through their creation in the Classical period or by inspiration from musical practices typical of that period. The first half of the concert featured Martina Venc Matušínská with a solo flute.  more

The second stop on the short Neues Klavier Trio Dresden's Czech-German tour was at the concert hall of the Janáček Academy of Music on 6 March at 16:00. A programme consisting of world premières by two Czech and two German composers was performed in four cities (Prague, Brno, Leipzig and Dresden).  more

The last opera première of the National Theatre Brno this year was Hurvínek Sells the Bride, which was co-produced with the Spejbl and Hurvínek Theatre. The première continued the thematic focus associated with the Year of Czech Music and took place on 24 November in the large hall of the Reduta Theatre.  more
