Zosima Quartet + Thistle + Johana Klára Kratochvílová

Zosima Quartet

The Zosima Quartet ensemble combines the sound of the nyckelharpa with clarinet and two cellos. It performs primarily with compositions by Jiří Maršálek (nyckelharpa), which blend classical minimalism with influences from older musical traditions. The music is built on deep, reflective themes and shaped by the nyckelharpa's unusual resonance. The ensemble is available for performances at private events or other forms of collaboration.

Thistle

An ambient electronic duo featuring Finnish musician Simo Hakala and Matěj Kotoučka, a creator of sound and musical accompaniment for theatre. Thistle's production is based on meditative, droning synthesizer textures and field recordings, complemented by live improvisation using both acoustic and electronic instruments.

Johana Klára Kratochvílová

Cymbalom player Johana Klára Kratochvílová emerged on the alternative scene several years ago in the duo Thyme, where she and her brother Martin Dominik explored the instrument's possibilities in combination with electronics. In her solo work, she merges classical and folk compositional approaches with contemporary sound design - electronically processed cymbalom serves here as a source of sustained resonances and ethereal echoes.
