Show on map
After two years composer and pianist Dan Tepfer returns to the 15th American Spring Festival. For the first time in the Czech Republic he will present his project Goldberg Variations. Dan Tepfer has created a kaleidoscopic experience with his solo album Goldberg Variations / Variations, the jazz pianist approaching J.S. Bach's masterpiece – one of the classical canon's most totemic works – as an
inspiring font for creativity. Interspersed with his affectionate interpretation of the complete "Goldbergs" are his own improvised variations on Bach's variations. No Jacques Loussier-style swinging of the classics, Tepfer's variations are marked by a ruminative joy, spiced with contemporary dissonances and a deep feel for the source as timeless music beyond category.

Alžběta Tichá: Frekvence
Frequency explores the complex relationship between body, mind, and technology. What happens when we feel nothing at all? And what happens when we go through extreme physical and emotional roller coasters? Alžběta Tichá creates an intimate and dynamic picture of human perception and emotions.
Commander
The unique production combines a physical theatre performance with live music and a film starring child actors of Farm in the Cave studio to communicate an urgent, yet widely overlooked, topic – the online radicalisation of youth.
Israel & Mohamed
Exceptionally sensitive production showing that in mutual relations, differences can be just as important as common traits. Together, under the spellbound gaze of their fathers, they seek a common language based on the body, its wounds and its scars. It is part of the Prague Crossroads Festival.
Antidote
Raising voice against the propaganda disrupting the world. Dakh Daughters does not stand silent in the face of the current threats, but raises a vibrant voice. They offer their music, poetry, and theatre as an antidote to all willing to listen with their hearts and resist the lies intended to distort reality. It is part of the Prague Crossroads Festival.
Current 93
An extraordinary double concert by the legendary project Current 93, held on the occasion of David Tibet’s solo exhibition. Current 93 has for decades created a unique space at the intersection of apocalyptic nursery – rhymes, poetry, mysticism, dreams, and sonic playgrounds.
Essential Sixth-tones II
The Ostrava Center for New Music presents another concert in its essential series at DOX+. This time, they will be presenting the inaugural concert of the new harmonium.
Liberté [trigger warning]
A production by Georgian theater director Data Tavadze exploring the power of language, how shame becomes a tool of control, and how propaganda contaminates the collective consciousness. It is part of the Prague Crossroads Festival.
David Tibet: Hallucinate, Children
An exhibition showcasing the visual work spanning the entire career of one of the most prominent figures in the esoteric and experimental underground scene of recent decades, David Tibet.
Disappearing Man
A reflection, through music and dance, on the constant need for stimulation and escape and the simultaneous search for the present moment. An intimate double bill of dancer Andrej Štěpita and musician Štěpán Janoušek presents an original solo project by two distinctive members of Farm in the Cave theatre ensemble.
