Jakub Zitko & Orfanik Orchestra feat. Aneta Langerová & Dorota Barová

ABOUT THE CONCERT

Jakub Zitko is one of the most distinctive figures on the contemporary Czech music scene. In his work, he blends jazz with elements of electronic music, rock and alternative music, creating a distinctive musical world in which composed passages naturally intertwine with improvisation. His compositions are distinguished by their rich sonic colour, thoughtful dramaturgy and a powerful emotional statement.

The centrepiece of the concert will be the original suite Hyperboloid, inspired by the geometric surface of the same name and its ever-changing forms. Its eight interconnected parts create a musical image of space, time and human emotions. Alongside Jakub Zitko, singers Aneta Langerová and Dorota Barová will also perform, whose distinctive style will bring an additional striking dimension to the evening. The programme will be rounded out by further original compositions by Zitko, all performed by the Orfanik Orchestra.
