"You will succeed it you do the right things. If you do your own thinking and continue to work whether it is popular or not, things will work out." - R. Buckminster Fuller
The biennial Ostrava Days Festival and Institute started more than twenty years ago, with modest support that practically all came from abroad. The vision was to create a platform for making the music of our time, with a focus on compositions for orchestra. No attention was paid to what the powerful cultural institutions expected or supported. The double-CD Ostrava Days Live 2019-2021 presents some of the highlights of the most recent festival performances, featuring multiple orchestras and a number of conductors and soloists, including our own ONO (Ostrava New Orchestra), which consists of young musicians from all over Europe, the well-established Ostravská banda chamber orchestra, and the Canticum Ostrava choir. It truly represents what Ostrava Days is all about: creating/performing/making music – from the youngest generation to masterpieces of the recent past. We are delighted to be able to publish this set of recordings. They are only a fragment of what is going on at Ostrava Days, but they indicate the direction we continue to pursue.
