Every visit to our concerts is a way of supporting the idea of Everlasting Hope. The heart of the festival programme consists of overlooked works created in the concentration camps during the Second World War, which remain an undervalued testament to human courage and creativity to this day. The festival also provides a platform for new projects by young performers and their audiences, including works by composers such as Tigran Mansurian. The festival’s artistic vision thus creates an arc spanning almost a century of musical development, where memory meets new creation. 

As part of the autumn programme of the 9th festival season, we are preparing a unique concert at Prague’s Jazz Dock. The evening will feature Songs We Carry, a collaborative project by British Jewish singer and multi-instrumentalist Ana Silvera and Palestinian oud player and singer Saied Silbak. The programme will also include a performance by acclaimed Czech oboist Štěpánka Andělová at the Church of St Lawrence under Petřín.

The festival is open to listeners of all generations – from classical music enthusiasts to lovers of theatre, cabaret, and jazz. Its spiritual foundation is the power of hope: a hope that overcomes displacement and creates space for beauty, faith, and freedom. Together, we can keep this legacy of hope alive. 

The festival is supported by public funding, contributions from foundations and sponsors, and, importantly, by our donors. Your support will help us cover the costs of organising the festival and bring audiences unforgettable cultural experiences.

Thank you for your support and trust. We hope to welcome you at our concerts and that you will enjoy them as much as we do!
