SUMMARY:Sláva Vorlová: 130th Anniversary Concert at Bohemian National Hall
DESCRIPTION:A concert featuring soprano Tamara Morozová\, contralto Monika Jägerová\, and pianist Vojtěch Červenka\, celebrating one of the most original Czech composers of the 20th century: Sláva Vorlová. The Lieder Society is thus reintroducing Vorlová’s work into the cultural landscape with a concert marking the 130th anniversary of her birth. Join in celebrating the Year of Czech Music with a resounding shout: Sláva! \nSláva Vorlová is one of the most original—and often overlooked—Czech composers of the 20th century. Her life and work reflect the historical currents of her time and her status as a prominent female composer in Czechoslovakia. Rooted in late Romanticism and influenced by jazz and numerology\, her music resonates with warmth\, intimacy\, and sharp wit. \nAfter studying in Prague and Vienna\, Vorlová (1894–1973) spent 15 years in her husband’s hat factory. Following World War II\, she returned to composition and gained recognition both at home and abroad. The tragic execution of her husband by the Nazis on May 8\, 1945\, inspired her song cycle Stesk I Nostalgia\, Op. 13 (1946)\, dedicated to journalist Karel Čapek. \nHer subsequent cycle\, O lásce / On Love\, Op. 17 (1947)\, features her own texts and marks a new chapter in her life. In Stručné úvahy / Brief Reflections\, Op. 89 (1971)\, she humorously sets Miroslav Holub’s poems to music during a time when they were banned in Czechoslovakia. Tragically\, Vorlová did not live to see its premiere. These duets explore themes of boundaries\, the flood of words\, and the laughter that helps us cope with scrutiny.
