The concert of the young piano trio will build on the success of previous performances after a break of almost three years. It will take place thanks to the project SERIOUS INTEREST (https://vaznyzajem.cz/), which brings classical music to our home. The program will include compositions by well-known and lesser-known masters (L.van Beethoven, N. Rota, M. Bruch). Come and experience first-hand that classical music is not serious!

Quasi Trio (http://www.quasitrio.cz/) was founded in 2014 in Prague. David Šimeček (clarinet), Judita Škodová (cello), Kateřina Ochmanová (piano) - graduates of the Music Academy of Performing Arts in Prague resp. Brno.

Admission: free, small contributions to musicians.

He will be pleased with a small tooth for a neighborhood meeting.

Bruch). Přijďte zažít na vlastní kůži, že klasická hudba není vážná!

Quasi Trio (http://www.quasitrio.cz/) bylo založeno v roce 2014 v Praze. David Šimeček (klarinet), Judita Škodová (violoncello), Kateřina Ochmanová (klavír) - absolventi Hudebních akademií múzických umění v Praze resp. Brně.

  • Krajská knihovny Vysočiny Havlíčkův Brod (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

We cordially invite you to the presentation of the book of music history by Šárka Pelikánová and Jakub Janeby.

The aim of the book is to guide the reader through the development of music through poems, structured information and the life stories of composers. From the earliest prehistoric beginnings of musical expression, the book addresses all important milestones in the development of classical music, without overwhelming the reader with complex facts.

European history of classical music

33 portraits, ten Czech composers - at the end of each chapter there are always several musical legends of the time. You will learn interesting information from life, but also musical characteristics and tips on well-known works of the artist.

15 chapters - the chapters are different in color, each contains a poem, full of illustrations, a portrait of a musician and a two-page page with important information about the musical epoch.

200 pages - the book is divided into chapters according to important milestones of musical development. It has grown to 200 pages, which gives a lot of space to the content and information, but at the same time does not overwhelm the reader with many texts so that he can perceive them together with the illustrations as a whole.

educational and beautiful - the book is full of hand- and digitally painted illustrations and portraits that will delight not only small but also large readers. In addition, it is full of important information and at the end a dictionary with the most important terms.

Šárka Pelikánová is a painter, teacher and gallerist. Jakub Janeba is a graphic designer and illustrator. They live and work in the Vysočina region. Together they create books and ceramics under the hyjé atelier brand.
