Sanatorium of Sound

For the this edition of Sanatorium Of Sound, we will showcase two artists who specialize in multichannel spatial sound in their practices. One of these artists is Jan Krtička, whose work focuses on the relationship between landscape and human intervention in nature. His projects combine a conceptual approach with sound installations, exploring acoustic elements of the environment and using controlled chance. https://www.jankrticka.com/ The second is Polina Khatsenka aka mʊdʌki is dj, audiovisual artist and promoter from Minsk, based in Northern Bohemia. She is a member of phonon, a fluid collective of audiovisual artists active in the field of contemporary art. https://linktr.ee/polina_khatsenka As a special occasion we will show Concert for sixt-tone harmonium performed by Miroslav Beinhauer. The 6-tone harmonium is an utterly unique instrument on a world scale. Once just an exhibit in the Czech Museum of Music, is now enjoying a renaissance. Created in the 1920s for composer Alois Hába by August Förster, the improved model dates from 1936. The only working example worldwide is in the Czech Museum of Music in Prague. The bands are selected by Sanatorium of Sound curator Robert Piotrowicz. Promotion both on Czech and Polish sides. Shuttle bus from Broumov to Sokołowsko for Saturday program will be dispatched. https://sanatoriumofsound.com/

Lecturers’ concert

An important output in showcasing Summer Time Music to general public. Lecturers can let themselves be heard not only by concert goers but also by students of STM, who otherwise don't get to hear them in action. This is a significant opportunity in gaining even more respect from students but also inspiration for their own music and aspiration about where they can go with it. This is also a good opportunity to show support of V4 and promote collaboration of artists from these four countries on one stage - where they can interact with each other and really take down any barriers and just create together. https://www.facebook.com/events/1286358889814049/

Group workshops at Core session

Group workshops, seminars or discussions with all students of summer school. These will be mostly theoretical, with general topics useful for all musicians. The preliminary topics for this year are "ERGONOMICS IN HARMONY WITH MUSIC" (physioterapy), creative songwriting, recording, composition, concert preparation. This is a time for the whole group to interact together, brainstorm ideas and get a different approach to music - mostly without their instruments. These will be also open to general public for a small fee, so even other students from the region can come join these workshops. https://summertimemusic.sk/
