The captivating voice of Joel Frederiksen will be your guide on a journey through the night in Litomyšl and into the world of the mythical Orpheus. This fascinating trip into the realm of English, French, and Italian music from the Renaissance to the early Baroque will present songs that address two of life’s significant questions – love and war.
Joel Frederiksen will lead a small group of listeners through several locations in the historic core of the town. The lute, guitar, and the velvety bass of the American artist will resonate acoustically in various places with distinct atmospheres.
