23rd Strážnice Vinobraní

This past weekend was the 23rd annual vinobraní in Strážnice. 

We went on Saturday morning.  It was a full-day wine and folk festival.

Lots of wine and burčák, plus beer and slivovice, along with performances by local music and dance groups.

Here are a couple of videos I filmed at the festival.

Příběhy z Ukrajiny

Příběhy z Ukrajiny, Stories from Ukraine, is an exhibition showing the experiences of Ukrainians feeling the country due to the Russian invasion.

Near the Moravian Gallery, there are civilian cars that were hit by Russian missiles in Ukraine.  

The exhibition brings a bit of the war to the centre of Brno.  

Я за Україну. Я за Україною. Слава Україні  Stojím za Ukrajinou!  I stand with Ukraine. 

Open-Air Concert

On Thursday, the Janáček Theatre out on a free open-air concert, in front of the theatre, to kick of the start of the 2023-2024 season.

Kája and I met up there after work to enjoy the performances before going to dinner.

There were performances by soloists, a choir and the opera company orchestra.  

Here are a couple of videos I took during the performance.
