A musical celebration of Vitezslava Kapralova’s legacy amid the dramatic events of 1938, blending music, literature and history.

In June 1938, Vitezslava Kapralova conducted the BBC Symphony Orchestra in London, gaining acclaim for her Military Sinfonietta. This event explores the turbulent year of 1938 through her music and writings by Woolf, Kafka and others. Featuring a cast of musicians and readers, it reflects on Kapralova’s brief life and extraordinary legacy against the backdrop of rising European tensions. Presented by Tekla Arts and Marcel Music, it offers a poignant look at hope and darkness as the Advent season approaches.
