Czech Chamber Music Society ⬩ Markéta Cukrová

Markéta Cukrová’s concert is among those carried over from last season. This sought-after mezzo-soprano is praised for her exceptional versatility and the sensitivity with which she approaches music ranging from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. She will be joined by harpist Kateřina Ghanudi and theorbo player and guitarist Jan Krejča.

Instead of the initially planned programme with contemporary music, the soloist will be presenting herself in a completely different light. The instrumentation itself reveals that we are going back several centuries. Italy of the first half of the 17th century was an especially noted centre for vocal music. The programme of the evening consists mainly of music by G. Caccini and C. Monteverdi that perhaps has never before been heard in this hall.
