Festival Klášterní hudební slavnosti je mezinárodní hudební festival s tradicí, který svou vysokou dramaturgickou a uměleckou úrovní zaujímá místo jednoho z nejvýznamnějších a nejzajímavějších hudebních festivalů současnosti, na Moravě se již tímto superlativem může v daném období pochlubit beze zbytku. Jak již z názvu vyplývá, koncertuje festival především v sakrálních skladbách nebo v prostředí, která jsou s církevními institucemi historicky nějakým způsobem spojena (kostely, bývalý nebo i současný majetek církví apod.), ale nevyhýbáme se i občasnému vybočení, ať už z důvodu kapacity, organizace nebo podmínek.

O věhlasu akce, ale také o zájmu posluchačů svědčí i fakt, že se návštěvnická úroveň rok co rok zvyšuje. Festival je nejenom pevnou součástí kulturního života Olomouckého kraje (kde se koná naprostá většina koncertů) s přesahem do krajů Moravskoslezského a Pardubického, ale stává se důležitým hybatelem festivalové turistiky. Za koncerty posluchači cestují z různých koutů a podporují tím také turistický průmysl. Návštěvníkům koncertů nabízí koncerty českých i zahraničních umělců mimořádné umělecké úrovně. Za dobu své existence navštívilo koncerty přes 33 tisíc posluchačů, kteří se mohou těšit na dramaturgicky pestrou a vyváženou skladbu koncertů, ať již formou komorních recitálů či koncertů komorních i větších těles nebo pěveckých sborů. Na festivalu se představují zásadní díla symfonické, operní, oratorní ale i komorní hudby.
The Klášterní hudební slavnosti festival is an international music festival with a tradition, which with its high dramaturgical and artistic level occupies the place of one of the most important and interesting music festivals of today, in Moravia it can already boast of this superlative in the given period. As the name implies, the festival performs mainly in sacred compositions or in environments that are historically connected with church institutions in some way (churches, former or current property of churches, etc.), but we do not avoid occasional deviations, either because of capacity , organization or conditions.

The fame of the event, but also the interest of the audience is evidenced by the fact that the visitor level is increasing year by year. The festival is not only an integral part of the cultural life of the Olomouc region (where the vast majority of concerts take place) with an overlap to the Moravian-Silesian and Pardubice regions, but it is also becoming an important driver of festival tourism. During the concerts, the listeners travel from different corners and thus also support the tourism industry. It offers concertgoers concerts of Czech and foreign artists of extraordinary artistic level. During its existence, over 33,000 listeners have attended concerts, who can look forward to a dramaturgically varied and balanced composition of concerts, whether in the form of chamber recitals or concerts of chamber and larger ensembles or choirs. The festival presents major works of symphonic, opera, oratorio and chamber music.

Festivals|Classical

The Olomouc International Organ Festival was established in 1969 and takes place every year in September in the Church of St. Mořice.
The founder of the festival was prof. Antonín Schindler (1925 - 2010), who worked as an organist in the church of St. Mořice. Here he had at his disposal a unique instrument by Michael Engler from 1745, which was, however, considerably dilapidated. On the initiative of prof. Schindler's organ was generally repaired and expanded, and it was this reconstruction that prompted the establishment of an organ festival with an international level.
The Olomouc International Organ Festival has become a household name in the organ world, and its quality and level are evidenced by a number of the world's top organists who have performed at the festival. The festival is organized by the Moravian Philharmonic Olomouc.

The Autumn Festival of Sacred Music was founded in 1994 and over the twenty-six years of its existence has become a major cultural event in Olomouc. Under the auspices of the archbishop of Olomouc and Moravian metropolitan Msgre Jan Graubner the Festival is organised by MUSICA VIVA in co-operation with the City of Olomouc, the Regional Authority of the Olomouc Region and the Czech Ministry of Culture. The prominent Czech conductor Stanislav Macura was the Festival’s co-founder and over a period of fifteen years served as its artistic director and conductor significantly influencing the Festival’s unique character. The dramaturgy draws upon the immensely rich heritage of brilliant composers of all nations without ignoring contemporary modern sacred music and observes ecumenical principles. The Festival has been recognised for the outstanding artistic quality of guest soloists and internationally renowned quality of vocal and instrumental ensembles. Radio recordings were made from the Festival concerts by Czech Radio, Radio Niederoesterreich (ORF), Slovak Radio and Polish Radio; concerts were broadcasted across Europe via international radio network of EBU. Twenty-five concerts were recorded and broadcasted in co-operation with Czech Television and TV Noe.

Povaleč was created in 2006 by a joint initiative of a bunch of friends. Until today, the organization team consists of friends, most of whom know each other for years.

Our aim is to entertain people, to revive the lovely town of Valeč, to create an event with a unique atmosphere, where everyone can find something that he enjoys and doesn’t have to pay overpriced entrance fee just to see a couple of well-worn bands. Povaleč is not about mainstream popular culture or money, it is about bringing people together and creating something different.
