NEW WORLD OF MORAVIAN AUTUMN
Third year of the festival’s JAMU student project
A project of students from the Department of Music Management of the Janáček Academy of Performing Arts (JAMU)
Programming Filip Gargulák, Vendula Vrbová, Anežka Nováková
The New World of Moravian Autumn famously premièred in 2021 as the initiative of three students from the Department of Music Management at the Janáček Academy of Performing Arts (JAMU), who devised inventive programmes for four concerts. The launch was a tremendous success, and that could have been the end, as it was originally conceived as a one-off project. But more students – musicians this time – signed up for the practical musical programming course at JAMU, which serves at the laboratory for New World programming. They took up the challenge of keeping New World going and worked hard on a second project. Their achievements made it clear that this collaboration between JAMU and Moravian Autumn is a sustainable project. New World now heads for its third appearance, with new students serving as programmers (Filip Gargulák, Vendula Vrbová and Anežka Nováková), again offering attractive and ambitious programmes in concerts that cannot be experienced anywhere else, showcasing the maturity and creativity of the organising students and, last but not least, strengthening the ties between Filharmonie Brno (the Moravian Autumn organiser) and JAMU.
