About event
"If Václav Trojan had traveled to America, he would be a famous film composer today melodies, like John Williams or Hans Zimmer". This is how leading Czech artists describe Václav Trojan's work. Václav Trojan worked closely with puppeteer and film director Jiří Trnka on puppet films, such as The Emperor's Nightingale, Princ Bajaja, or A Midsummer Night's Dream... Václav Trojan fell in love with the accordion and to this day his compositions are among the most valuable "treasures" of world accordion music. Trojan tried to combine three completely disparate instruments - accordion, violin and guitar and the best interpreters of these instruments at the time - M. Zelenka, B. Bláha and A. Mádl. Thanks to this attempt, these artists interpreted Trojan's compositions at EXPU 58 in Brussels. Many Czech composers dedicated their works to this group. During this evening, two of Trojan's fairytale lights will be heard - Prince Bajaja and The Emperor's Nightingale.
