A concert marking the 300th anniversary of the birth of lutenist Karel Kohaut—one of the last virtuosos of the instrument—who is the subject of a panel exhibition at the Moravian Library scheduled for the first half of 2027.
Soloists Marta Kratochvílová and Jan Čižmář from the ensemble *Les Plaisirs de Musique* will perform works not only by this "last Viennese lutenist"—as Kohaut is often called—but also by his contemporaries, drawn from significant musical collections preserved in Moravia.
The concert program will be hosted by the exhibition’s curator, Jana Franková, Ph.D., who will also introduce the audience to the life story of this largely forgotten musician.

The band is a fixture of the Czech music scene, having fundamentally influenced the development of domestic rock music through its work and impact. It was founded in 1985 by Robert Kodym (vocals, guitar) and P.B.CH. (bass), who were later joined by Tomáš Waschinger (drums), Petr Franc (keyboards), and Michal Penk (vocals). In 1987, Michal Dvořák brought in singer and drummer David Koller. After several lineup changes, the group stabilized in the early 1990s with the lineup of Robert Kodym, P.B.CH., David Koller (drums), and Michal Dvořák (keyboards).
A major breakthrough came in the early 1990s with the albums *In the Sky* and *Černý kočky, mokrý žáby*. These recordings produced legendary hits that resonated with several generations of fans and remain staples of their concert setlists to this day.
Throughout its existence, LUCIE has won numerous prestigious awards—including ten Anděl Awards—and sold hundreds of thousands of records. Despite lineup changes and periods of touring hiatuses, the band has maintained its distinctive style and concert energy.
A recent anniversary tour across the Czech Republic reaffirmed the band's standing on the domestic scene and the enduring interest of audiences across generations. LUCIE is currently working on a new album titled *R.A.D.O.S.T.*
The band's current concert lineup consists of Robert Kodym, P.B.CH., Michal Dvořák, Viktor Dyk, and Štěpán Smetáček.
