Piesňový večer III – Mária Porubčinová / Róbert PechanecVocal Evening III – Mária Porubčinová / Róbert Pechanec

Klement Slavický was one of the most outstanding Czech composers of the second half of the 20th century. He responded to many influences, including folklore from his beloved Moravia. Giuseppe Verdi is a symbol of the art of opera and literally a cult figure in the field. Alongside his hard work on compelling dramas, he relaxed while creating charming or passionate songs. Evgeny Irshai is also a personality who seems to embody all the spiritual as well as structural positions of the musical art. On the basis of a kind of fatal concern for the loss of the basic ethical values of humanity, he offers a multitude of expressive positions saturated with psychological penetration into the essence of a given theme or subject. Erik Satie was the spiritual leader of the emerging avant-garde at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. He was not shackled by any “system”, he acted freely and often in a piquantly provocative way.
