Mirko Krajči’s compositional poetics is characteristic by its inclination towards religious themes and a calm contemplating nature. The work premiered tonight was inspired by emotional poems of Milan Rúfus and folk poetry. Following his impressive Mahler-like meditation in 2011 and Beethovenian reflection in 2020, Egon Krák pays his symphonic tribute to the weighty representative of the Slovak poetry, P. O. Hviezdoslav, on the occasion of the centenary of the poet’s death. The concert will be enriched with the famous opus of Antonín Dvořák.
Sinfonietta Žilina and Lúčnica Chorus are artists eager to give premieres of works of Slovak composers; tonight at the BMF again with the conductor Oliver Dohnányi.
