The Folklore Art City project focuses on classical music based on traditional folklore. The project builds on the previous original one named Folklore and Feelings. This evening, classical music will meet with folklore in Era Café; we will listen to works by Antonín Dvořák, Klement Slavický and Leoš Janáček, with the appearance of opera singers Aneta Podracká Bendová and Eva Marie Kořená.
The first part of Folklore Art City will feature two Brno-born singers: Aneta Podracká Bendová and Eva Marie Kořená. Eliška Vomáčková will take care of the piano accompaniment. During the evening, we will hear a selection of Moravian Duets and Four Duets by Antonín Dvořák, a song cycle named Ej, srdenko moje [Ay, My Heart] by Klement Slavický and a selection of Moravian folk poetry in the songs of Leoš Janáček.
The event will take place today, i.e. 25 April 2019, at 7:30 pm in the Café Era in Brno.
