“The combination of male voices with the cello seems wise, natural and beautiful. The resulting speech was humble, yet very colourful and elegant. The music arranged for the three performers sounded very timeless. At the beginning there was humility and longing, but at the end there was absolution, mobilization of spiritual strength and faith.”

Tomáš Cidlina

The main part of this concert programme is Stabat Mater by Italian composer Marco Rosano, who adapted it on commission for the Kchun singing duo. A combination of medieval and baroque repertoire is included at the beginning to emphasise the spiritual dimension

frequently asked questions

How do the sectors work?
Tickets purchased are not seat-specific tickets. Within the purchased sector, the spectator chooses his/her own seat, so early arrival is recommended. Access to the auditorium is allowed one hour before the start of the show.
Where will I sit?
This programme uses the space of the transept of the temple. The auditorium is therefore not located in the nave and instead of church pews it is made up of more comfortable chairs.
Wheelchairs
We want do everything possible to make things easy for people in wheelchairs. To purchase tickets, please contact Jitka directly: nazdravetska@smetanovalitomysl.cz, +420 602 457 338.
