Programme

In cities like London, Berlin, and Paris, it is common to see people attending concerts in everyday clothes—simply because the size of these cities makes it impractical to go home and change into formal attire before a performance. Prague audiences now have the same opportunity, thanks to Artium by KKCG at Bořislavka Centre—a space dedicated to all forms of art, from painting and sculpture to digital art and music. These early evening concerts offer a unique atmosphere: an informal setting, outstanding young musicians, and art within arm’s reach. For this year’s Artium programme line—Innovation, we have selected young musicians who have already demonstrated and fully mastered their craft. After all, true innovation can only come from deep knowledge and skill. Only when musicians fully command their art can they explore new interpretative paths with lasting impact. Achieving mastery in any field takes time. Innovation is not only about the final outcome but also about the journey towards presenting a unique artistic vision. This year’s participants in the Bořislavka concert series are a shining example of this approach, whether through the programme of the Ševčík Academy or performances by students of Brno’s leading music conservatoires.
