“Renewable Music” is a project that brings together composers and musicians from the Visegrad countries, celebrating the richness of contemporary music in the region while addressing issues of environmental responsibility in the music sector.

During the concert, we will hear second world performances of four new compositions commissioned from composers of the younger generation, selected through a competition by an international jury. The works will be performed by the Hashtag Ensemble, which specializes in contemporary music, and whose ranks will be joined by musicians from the Czech orchestra BERG, known for its innovative musical projects.

Before the concert, the public is invited to an open rehearsal, during which it will be possible to talk to the composers and project partners.

Admission is free, you are cordially invited!
