Dalibor 2022

Dalibor is based on events that took place in the 15th century: having led a peasant revolt, the Knight Dalibor of Kozojedy was imprisoned, by order of King Vladislav II of Bohemia, in a tower in Prague Castle that still bears the name “Daliborka” to this day. Legend has it that he learned to play the violin while he was incarcerated, and that the people passing by the tower would be moved on hearing his music.

Věra Martinová – jubilejní narozeninový koncert 2022

She is often called the first lady of Czech country music. However, it would be more accurate to say that Věra Martinová is one of our best pop singers. On top of that, she is undoubtedly an excellent guitarist. She had been planning her birthday concert for 2020, when she celebrated her milestone birthday, but the concert could not take place during the COVID-19 pandemic. It finally took place at the Hybernia Theater in November 2021 and was full of energy and great music in perfect interpretation. She performed her greatest hits, as well as songs from her latest album, Meritum.

Lazebník sevillský 2023

A popular production from 2021, straight from the historic building of the National Theatre. This star-studded title is directed by experienced director Magdalena Švecová, with soloists, the National Theatre Orchestra and Choir, and conducted by Jaroslav Kyzlink. The Barber of Seville was composed by the then 23-year-old Gioachino Rossini in just three weeks, resulting in a witty and dynamic work that perfectly captures the genre of Italian opera buffa. Rossini based his work on the 1772 play The Barber of Seville, or The Misguided Precaution by French dramatist Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais. The two-act opera tells the story of the young love between Rosina and Count Almaviva. However, her guardian Don Bartolo also has his eye on her. Almaviva does not give up and asks the local barber Figaro for help, who comes up with a daring plan to bring the couple to their dream wedding.
