An Evening of Jazz in Honor of Václav Havel’s 90th Birthday

Celebrate the 90th birthday of Václav Havel with an unforgettable evening of jazz that captures the spirit of creativity, freedom, and cultural vibrancy he championed. This special program brings together musicians and guests for a night of rich sound and shared reflection, blending soulful improvisation with the legacy of one of the Czech Republic’s most influential writers, thinkers, and statesmen.

Set against an intimate, welcoming atmosphere, the performance pays tribute not only to Havel’s artistic roots but also to the values he carried throughout his life—humanity, openness, and the power of expression. Guests are invited to relax, listen, and immerse themselves in a musical celebration that honors Havel’s enduring impact on art and society.
