Dulcimer music of Alexander Vrabel

The dulcimer music plays and sings songs from Moravia, which is its home, but also interprets Czech, Slovak, Hungarian and Romani melodies. It is also dedicated to the world repertoire, which will delight especially the older generation – it is world evergreens, including some jazz and swing standards.

Alexander Vrabel’s dulcimer music started its activity in 1997. Its members are current and former members of the Czech Song and Dance Ensemble. It deals with folklore from various regions of Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia. It draws its themes and observations from the collections of František Sušil, F. Bartos, F. Poloczek, Leoš Janáček and other collectors of national songs.

However, the dulcimer music does not shy away from the modern concept of folk music. It impresses with its distinctive presentation and is able to please a wide range of listeners with its repertoire. The influences of musicians from various folklore regions of Moravia, who have their roots deeply embedded in the Moravian land and in their beautiful songs and customs, are intertwined here. All this sways gently over the tones, melodies and singing of this dulcimer music.

The music has also toured much of Europe, and uses original hand-embroidered costumes in its performances. The dulcimer band is dressed in costumes from the Trenčianske Povaja region, the singers are dressed in costumes from Piešt’any, Trenčín and Hroznová Lhota.

Roudnice nad Labem

Traditionally, the Roudnice Basket is held every June in the gardens of the Lobkowicz Castle in Roudnice nad Labem. Wine lovers can taste wines from winemakers from the entire Bohemia wine region in one place. How does this event take place? At the ticket office, each visitor receives a catalogue of participating winemakers with all their contacts so that they can communicate with the winemaker in the future. The ticket to the Roudnice Basket includes a tasting glass with the logo, which visitors keep. Individual wine samples are paid for at each winemaker only electronically, using loaded chips. Once you have found your winemaker favourite, you can support them in the Winemaker of the Year poll. The winning winemaker will be announced in the evening. Of course, the wine tasting must be accompanied by music – you can look forward to regional and more distant bands. The Winemaker of the Year award is followed by an afterparty until the late hours of the night.

Musical programme:
13:00 – 14:30 Někdy Trio
15:00 – 16:30 BODEJŤ
17:00 – 18:30 Alexander Vrábel’s Dulcimer Band
