‘Jan Michiels’

The Belgian pianist Jan Michiels takes you on a journey through 19th-century Bohemia and Moravia. It was in those two regions of today's Czech Republic that great figures of musical history such as Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, and Leoš Janáček were born. Brno was not only the city where Janáček studied music, but he went on to found an organ school there, the predecessor of the current conservatory in the city where he also composed a number of his greatest masterpieces. In Prague, he would meet Antonín Dvořák, the city's emblematic musical figure, who was to influence his subsequent works.
