Das Konzert wird verschoben. Der Ersatztermin wird baldmöglichst bekannt gegeben. Die bereits gekauften Tickets behalten ihre Gültigkeit.

NIKOL BÓKOVÁ is a classical pianist by training and experience. She regularly performs as a soloist with foremost Czech orchestras. Her first such appearance was with the Janáček Philharmonic Ostrava at the age of nine and she continues to collaborate with the orchestra to this day.
Nikol now releases INNER PLACE, debut album with her original music that has been recorded in the traditional jazz-piano-trio line-up. Whilst her usual repertoire stretches from the Baroque period to contemporary music, her debut album shows inspiration from jazz, classical music, minimalism and, in some respects, popular music: “Recently, I’ve fallen for the sound of the classical jazz trio and realized that it is the direction I want to take. I consider my music as ‘songs’ in which I can directly tell a story. As opposed to classical music, I view this as a more immediate, in some sense simpler way to express my emotions. I don’t feel any need to pertain to a particular genre.” Nikol’s compositions are perfectly polished miniatures, simple in form but echoing the harmonic and melodic complexity of classical piano literature. Indeed, Bóková’s play, defined to her brilliant technique and dynamic keystroke, is unique in the world of the jazz piano. The album INNER PLACE is characterized by great compositional and interpretive maturity, while it also breathes with the fresh energy of a debut that witnesses an author discovering new musical worlds.
