Events

The Evening of Legends will bring together the music of rock icons on one stage for the 26th time. On Good Friday, April 3, a packed evening in the Hard and Heavy style will take place in the Brno Semilass, which will present excellent tribute bands AC/DC, OZZY OSBOURNE and METALLICA. After a great success, the music of AC/DC is returning to the legends, performed by the top tribute band AC/CZ, led by guitarist Adam Malík. The band is critically acclaimed as one of the best abroad as well. It has been on the scene since 2010 and will play over 100 concerts a year. You can look forward to a great concert show with original costumes, instruments, sets, and, most importantly, precise interpretation. The line-up will not be missing the popular Metallica revival from Beroun. This is the most successful Czech revival of Metallica, which has performed numerous performances in the Czech Republic and abroad, including large indoor shows. The selection of their repertoire falls within the entire period of Metallica's work. On stage you will see the same drum set as Lars Ulrich, James Hetfield's typical explorer or the Mesa Boogie guitar amplifier used by Kirk Hammett. The premiere of the event will be a performance by Ozzy Osbourne revival. The band from Humpolec has popular songs such as Crazy Train, Mr. Crowley or Mama I'm Coming Home in its repertoire. The biggest hits from the Black Sabbath era such as Paranoid cannot be missed either. Ozzy Osbourne's music will be heard on the legends after a long seventeen years.

Narvan is firmly connected to its roots. In the original line-up with a new singer and guitarist. After a hiatus that lasted almost a quarter of a century, the Brno funk rocket Narvan is returning to the scene with the three original members on board, supplemented by new partners. They commemorate the legacy of singer Mario and guitarist Marty with dignity and full force.

It is often forgotten that the piano is a percussive instrument. When you listen to Amaro Freitas, you immediately remember this. That is what they wrote about this new star of Brazilian jazz, who has Latin American rhythmic foundations in his blood, head, hands and heart, as well as the impulses of the most modern music.

We approach Gilgamesh, the Sumerian king, who dives to the bottom of the ocean for the plant of eternal life. What will he return with from his distant pilgrimage? Cathartic situations create a spark, the necessary intensity that allows us to gain insight into the inner world. Diving into unknown depths requires courage. But being courageous does not mean not being afraid. It becomes inevitable to search for what was in the beginning and in the process find passion but also the beauty of the ordinary, vibrating unrest, pleasure and death, humility and cohesion. An ancient epic broken in half. Quieter heroes emerge from the cracks. Sensitive hearts. Brave souls who fall deep to take off. The performance is recommended for audiences 15+. It also warns viewers that the performance uses a strobe light and loud music.

The Ellaboration project by singer Dasha and the Epoque Quartet refers to the American music legend Ella Fitzgerald. It is the songs made famous by this jazz icon that the artists develop or elaborate into new, fresh positions. The specific and amazingly complex sound of the combination of a string quartet with various percussion instruments (hangdrum, vibraphone, cajon), with which Šimon Veselý excels, gives our lead singer Dasha the space to demonstrate her uniqueness in a slightly different field than we are used to. The author of most of the arrangements is the arranger wizard and violist of the quartet, Alexej Aslamas.

Tours of the theatre buildings are very popular among visitors. This summer, professional guides are available to you, who will not only introduce you to the history of the Janáček and Mahen Theatre buildings and their construction development, but will also tell you all sorts of interesting and spicy things that you will not hear about. You will get to places inaccessible to ordinary spectators, such as backstage or technical rooms of the theatre. During the season, tours can be arranged by individual agreement (at least a week before the tour date) for groups of at least ten people.

In its program Citizenship Notes, the Brooklyn Rider Quartet presents itself as a microcosmic democracy, a strongly engaged ecosystem of equal voices with clear rights and responsibilities. The program also celebrates a significant milestone in the history of Western democracy: the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence. Three commissioned compositions by Don Byron, Ted Hearn, and Angélica Negrón explore issues of citizenship and democracy in the 21st century; a look at Bob Dylan’s classic from the civil rights era is translated by quartet member Colin Jacobsen.
