Music lovers, get ready for a musical journey through the seasons! The program will take us from the contemporary Czech repertoire "4 Ritornels for Violin and Organ" by Lukáš Sommer (1984), through the iconic "Four Seasons" by A. Vivaldi (1678-1741) to the modern rendition of the seasons in Buenos Aires by A. Piazzolla (1921-1992).

Dennis Schneiderka, a Czech violinist with an international reputation, will interpret these works together with the exceptional violinist Jamila Garayusifli from Azerbaijan.

Enjoy an unforgettable experience in the impressive setting of St. Joseph's Church in Jevišovice. This massive Empire-style sanctuary built in 1823-30 stands on the site of the former medieval church of St. Nicholas. An interesting feature of the Jevišovice church is the organ, which is almost a hundred years older than the church itself. They were made in 1748 by the Brno organist Jan Vymola and originally decorated the interior of the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul in Brno.
