About the venue: KC Semilasso

KC Semilasso is a cultural centre in the Královo Pole district of Brno, located on Palackého třída. Its name derives from the pen name of German traveller and landscape gardener Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau, who once stayed at the original inn on the site. Following a major reconstruction completed in 2003, the venue hosts concerts, theatre performances, lectures, exhibitions and an open-air cinema, and also features a pub, a literary café and a garden for outdoor events.

About: Jiří Pavlica

Czech violinist, composer and musicologist Jiří Pavlica was born on 1 December 1953 in Uherské Hradiště and has directed the ensemble Hradišťan since 1978. His artistic work draws from Moravian folk heritage while encompassing world music, jazz and sacred compositions - masses, oratorios and string quartets. The 1999 album O slunovratu, featuring poems by Jan Skácel, achieved platinum status and received the Žlutá ponorka critics' award; a collaboration with South African multi-instrumentalist Dizu Plaatjies resulted in the gold-certified album Mys Dobré naděje (2001). Under his artistic direction, Hradišťan has toured four continents and produced over thirty recordings.
