"Folk Holidays" Náměšť nad Oslavou is an extraordinary music Festival. These 8 days many visitors spend as their real music, art and dancing holidays, of which they can be either active or passive participants. They are surro unded by the charming environment of the Naměšť Renaissance chateau, chateau park, adjacent environs of the Oslava river in the town as well as outside the town.

Every evening music programme of the Festival has its theme, its set up, with no genre borders - world, ethnic and folklore music, jazz, rock, folk, classical music. For the coming musicians the Festival often is an inspiration for an untraditional special concert - it is not unusual that they stay for several days, even just as spectators in the audience or as workshop participants.

The Festival is not just the evening concerts at the chateau courtyard. During the Festival days a number of workshops take place - you can e.g. learn to play the basics of some interesting musical instrument, jam and talk with musicians, who the previous evening enthused the courtyard, create your own drawings, paintings, silkscreen printings, objects, write your own text and poetry. Several hours in the afternoon belong regularly to so-called "Open Scene", where interesting, less known, music groups perform on a small stage behind the Baroque Hospital in the town by the Oslava river. And at night not only does the Festival camp come alive with music, but also the chapel of the Baroque Hospital.

The Festival is also unusual thanks to the number of international guests. The Folk Holidays Festival is a festival of outstanding music as well as non-music experiences and inspirations.

In the next ten years, Haydn's music festivals intend to present the work of the main musical "nations" or regions within the individual festival years, which contributed to the formation of classicist musical language, which soon established itself as a universal musical language used worldwide. This dramaturgical principle will significantly enrich the existing principles (focus on compositional anniversaries, regional musical sources, great major works of the classicist era). The intention of the organizers is to dedicate 40-50% of the festival's concert performances to musical "nations".
Italy has a decisive position among these nations. Therefore, the 29th year of the festival (2021) will be dedicated to Italian and Italian-inspired music of the 17th and 18th centuries. Italian musical inspiration has dominated world music for more than three centuries, culminating in the period of classicism (16th - 19th centuries). It was the Italian composers at the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries who formulated a new way of compositional work, based on more intensive work with musical material. Thanks to this, new musical genres saw the light of day in the Italian environment, which then dominated the next centuries (concert, symphonies, etc.), some others then gained new developmental inspiration (sonata, opera, etc..).

MHF Lípa Musica is the most important festival project in the field of classical music in northern Bohemia. During its nineteen-year history, it supplemented the imaginary cultural map of our country with a highly valued and high-quality music holiday and thus became not only a representative of our country's culture in the Czech Republic, but also fulfills its international status as one of the few events in the Czech Republic. It fulfills it not only at the level of presentation of the world's leading performers in the country, but also through the export of the Czech musical elite to Germany. For years, the festival has been predestined for the development of the Czech-German dialogue, which takes place at the artistic level, but also in creating an environment for deepening friendly relations between neighboring regions at the organizing and visitor level. In recent years, the Lípa Musica Festival has been sponsoring its program with the personality of an artistic guarantor (Radek Baborák in 2017 and 2018, Josef Špaček in 2019 and 2020). This institute of the festival opens the door to the possibility of presenting excellent performers from abroad, not only of German provenance, who often, despite their exceptional qualities, appear on Czech stages for the first time and are thus a new inspiration for the Czech cultural community. Lípa Musica pays attention not only to the high level of interpretive quality, but also to the content of the dramaturgy itself and the careful selection of the presented works and their discovery and value not only in the context of generally reflected themes and anniversaries. The dramaturgy of the festival is also developed taking into account foreign trends, which are an inspiration in the selection of performers and works, but also in the more general organizational level. Lípa Musica also pays great attention to young artists and creates platforms for their collaboration with already renowned performers, and at the same time, in support of cultural dialogue, seeks to include proj
