    Creatives

    Six song recitals in the 2024/2025 season will increase the diversity of the National Theatre Opera's repertoire. The morning concerts on the stage of the Estates Theatre will follow the successful recitals in 2023/2024 season, during which we tested not only the acoustic possibilities of the space usually reserved for performers. Close proximity of performers and audience allows for an intense reciprocal experience of the recited pieces and an extraordinary experience enhanced by the venue itself – an otherwise hidden setting of the theatre stage and the surroundings of Old Prague itself.

    Programme:

    Dramaturgical introduction

    Arnold Schönberg: String Quartet No. 2 for two violins, viola, cello and soprano (in the 3rd and 4th movements), Op. 10. Texts: Stefan George (aus Der siebente Ring [1907]). (T. Morozová)

    Karel Boleslav Jirák: String Sextet with Alto Solo on a Chinese poetry text, Op. 14.(S. Čmugrová)
