TELEGRAPH - cinema room
Lead by Iva Bittová (CZ/USA): "I have been walking my path with violin and voice for many decades. Meeting and intertwining with different styles and traditions of different ethnicities is a form and reflection of my musical and personal expression today. My musical ideas are based on perceiving and listening to the inner voice and communicating with nature. This requires silence, a relaxed mind and a positive atmosphere. All this can then be transferred into musical free form. Through the listener I want to send vibrations, new resonances and ideas further out into the universe. The personification of being present at a concert is an important value of the shared experience. My wish is to transmit positive energy to every single person in the audience, to inspire and also to be able to go back at least for a moment to our childhood, to recall our immediate playfulness and sense of humor. Music brings us joy and a sense of happiness! That's what we really need!"

IMPRA: DANGEROUS RELATIONSHIPS
Hanny and Ondra accompanied by Tomáš Vyšinka - IMPRA. Formerly ordinary boys, students, after thirty years of age, they learn about the unpredictability of human relationships. How does this affect their ability to perform on stage without a script? What new characters and stories will they create before you? Experience the theatre under the starry sky in the Telegraph's atrium where almost anything can happen. Whether it's love, betrayal or a singing snail.
Watch out! These shows may contain traces of nuts, gluten and passion!
