They wrote about us:

The aim of this project is to create a platform for cultural exchange between Czech and Ghanaian musicians. In addition to the unique opportunity, it will offer the audience to experience authentic African music at the top level and a bold fusion with the music of young Czech artists. Antonín Procházka, behaved in the western musical tradition and a graduate of study internships of traditional West African music at the University of Ghan, gives the two worlds in its compositions. It composes music that is accessible and understandable to musicians from different cultural environments to grasp and express it together. This approach will allow the interconnection of traditional African dances and songs with Western musical tradition, jazz and free improvisation, creating a new, innovative musical language. At the same time, it will provide the opportunity to Czech musicians and music students to educate and acquaint themselves with African culture.
