VIENNA Independent arrival at the Vienna International airport. Take a taxi to the centrally located deluxe GRAN HOTEL where we stay three nights. Cocktail and Gala Welcome dinner at the hotel. Sunday, April 30. (B,). VIENNA Morning sightseeing of this cultural capital of Europe. Among the sights will be the Hofburg, the former Imperial Palace, and St. Stephen’s Cathedral, walk through the charming courtyards and see some of the homes of famous composers such as Beethoven and Mozart. This evening we will see the opera Das Rheingold by Wagner at the Vienna Staatsoper VIENNA: From the time the Romans selected the site of a Celtic settlement for the location of one of its most important Central European forts, Vindobona, the city which grew up in the Vienna Basin of the Danube, has played a vital role in European history. Austria grew up around the city and developed into a mighty empire, but the Viennese character formed during the long history of the country can only be said to be a rich amalgam of the blending of cultures that have made Vienna what it still is today: a city whose people devote themselves to the enjoyment of the good life - music, art, literature, theatre, architecture, education, food and drink - all are part of the gemütlichkeit of Vienna. Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven, the Strausses (all of them), Gluck, Mahler, Brahms, Liszt, Haydn, Weber, Schonberg - in the music world alone these are some of the outstanding names which are a part of the soul of Vienna. Monday, May 1. (B). VIENNA Morning is free to visit any of the fine museums within a short walk of our hotel, such as the Albertina or the Museum of Fine Arts. This evening we will see the opera Die Walküre by Wagner at the Vienna Staatsoper. Tuesday, May 2. (B,). VIENNA - BUDAPEST This morning we drive west to cross the border into Hungary and reach Budapest where we stay three nights at the deluxe HOTEL MARRIOTT located next to the Danube River. This evening we will see the opera Elektra by R. Strauss at the Hungarian State Opera. Wednesday, May 3. (B,D). BUDAPEST Morning sightseeing in this famous twin city will start in Buda with a visit to the 13th century Matthias Church and the Fisherman Bastion. In Pest, the commercial center, we will see St. Stephen’s Basilica, the Hungarian Parliament, Hero Square and the newly restored Synagogue. Afternoon at leisure. This evening we will enjoy a superb dinner entertained by musicians at the famous GUNDEL restaurant. BUDAPEST is that paradox among Eastern European capitals, a city where the pleasure of the table has lost none of its zing. Happily for visitors enticed by monuments to an opulent past, Hungary’s former imperial city is filled with architectural treasures that have been handsomely preserved. Divided by the wide stately bends of the Danube River, Budapest is two cities in one. The halves present a startling contrast. On the east bank modern, bustling, industrial Pest spreads across the low-lying Hungarian piedmont. On the west, 2000-year old Buda – the historic heart of the city and a pedestrian’s delight – wanders into a bastion of secluded hills. Thursday, May 4. (B). BUDAPEST Today is free to take a boat ride on the Danube River right next to our hotel or take one of hot baths in Buda or visit any of the fine museums. Friday, May 5. (B,D). BUDAPEST - BRATISLAVA This morning we drive west and cross the border into Slovakia, to arrive in Bratislava where we stay two nights at the deluxe, centrally located RADISSON HOTEL. Dinner at the hotel. The Poles, Hungarians, Austrians, Germans and Russians occupied BRATISLAVA, straddling both banks of the Danube River for centuries. It became the capital of the Slovak Republic only on January 1st, 1993, by electing to separate from the former country of Czechoslovakia. Both the Austrian and Hungarian borders are just a stone’s throw away from the city center. Saturday, May 6. (B). BRATISLAVA Morning sightseeing of this prosperous city. Among the rights are the Cathedral of Saint Martin, Old City Hall and the Trinity Church. This evening we will see the opera Cosi Fan Tutti by Mozart, at the Slovak National Theatre. Sunday May 7. (B). BRATISLAVA - VIENNA This morning we head west, back to Vienna where we spend four nights again at the deluxe GRAN HOTEL. This afternoon we will see the opera Siegfried by Wagner at the Vienna Staatsoper. Monday May 8. (B). VIENNA Today is free to visit some of the other artistic treasures of this city, such as taking a bus ride from near our hotel to the Belvedere Palace built by Prince Eugen of Savoy, and Schönbrunn’s Palace built by Empress Maria Theresa. Tuesday, May 9. (B,D). VIENNA Today is free to watch the show of the Lipizzaner Horses at the Spanish Riding school, or visit any of the fine arts museums of the Museum Quarter within a short walk of our hotel. This evening we will have our Gala Farewell dinner at the famous SACHER restaurant. Wednesday, May 10. (B). VIENNA Morning is free to visit the Secession Building housing the Beethoven Frieze created by Gustav Klint, painter of “the Woman in Gold”, or the Hundertwasserhaus to see the fairytale – like house with 50 apartments designed by the flamboyant Austrian artist, one of Vienna’s most frequented landmarks. This afternoon we will see the opera Götterdämmerung by R. Wagner at the Vienna Staatsoper. Thursday, May 11. (B).

  • Ladislav Vychodil's Approach to Designing Stages for Shakespeare
    ¤ Theatralia 21 / 2018 / 2 ¨79ª94¬ ® https://doi.org/10.5817/TY2018-2-6 Ladislav Vychodil’s Approach to Designing Stages for Shakespeare Home and Abroad Zuzana Koblišková ] Abstract This essay aims to present the most significant approaches Vychodil used for designing stages for Shakespeare plays, and to compare the designs with others, more typical of Vy- yorick chodil’s aesthetic practice. The paper will, therefore, ask the following questions: (i) what [ demands do Shakespeare’s plays make on the designer? and (ii) how does Vychodil, in par- ticular, respond to these requirements? In constructing my argument, I have relied not only on well-known resources and monographs, but I have also used material from the archives of the Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee Theatre Research Institute in Columbus, Ohio, which have not hitherto been sufficiently studied by other researchers. Keywords Ladislav Vychodil, Shakespeare scenography, Slovak National Theatre, Jarka M. Burian, Oslo, Santa Barbara CA 79 text_theatralia_02_2018.indd 79 10.12.2018 12:00:46 Zuzana Koblišková Ladislav Vychodil’s Approach to Designing Stages for Shakespeare Home and Abroad […] once you start working somewhere else than home, the work as if meant more […] especially when you start working abroad […] (ČINČERA 1995) (Ladislav Vychodil) Introduction Certainly, there is no need to introduce Ladislav Vychodil within the context of Czech ] and Slovak scenography. He was born in 1920 in Moravia; yet he has been called ‘the doyen of Slovak scenography and the founder of the scenography department at the Academy of Performing Arts in Bratislava’ (Hudobný život 2005: 8). Vychodil was born yorick yorick [ Czech (coincidently, in the same year that the Slovak National Theatre was ‘born’) and it might have been fate that throughout his whole life, Vychodil fought fiercely to help create a Slovak theatre tradition.

  • Momentous Historical Events in the Modern Czechoslovak History and Their Place in the Ideological Framework of Pre-War Czechoslovakia
    Momentous historical events in the modern Czechoslovak history and their place in the ideological framework of pre-war Czechoslovakia Milan Olejník, Spoločenskovedný ústav SAV, Košice, [email protected] OLEJNÍK, Milan.Momentous historical events in the modern Czechoslovak history and their place in the ideological framework of pre-war Czechoslovakia. Individual and Society, 2009, Vol. 12, No. 2. The article is a summary of celebration of the 28th October 1918 and Pittsburg agreement in Slovakia in epoch of the Pre-Munich Czechoslovakia republic. Czechoslovakian republic. 28 October 1918. Pittsburgh Agreement. Autonomy. 28 October 1918 – establishment of Czechoslovak Republic Czechoslovak Republic (CSR) was one of the states, which came to existence as a result of geopolitical changes after World War I. The biggest challenge to newly formed state was its ethnic diversity – almost a half of population (if we count Slovaks separately) was not Czech. The next largest ethnic community was German. Majority of three million Germans considered their inclusion into CSR as an act of injustice. A similar situation existed in Slovakia, where approximately seven hundred thousand ethnic Hungarians (Magyars) were included into Czechoslovakian state. There were other ethnic minorities – Ukrainians, Ruthenians, Jews, Poles and others, who became part of complex ethnic structure of CSR. The ethnic core community – Czechs – utilized all possible means available to their disposal to alleviate existing situation and to establish working framework of government in sphere of politics, economics and ideology. Mainly for this reason, an emphasis was paid to ideology supportive to unity of state. In that sense, singularly important was to weld Czechs and Slovaks together and create unified nation.

We do not eat just to survive, but first of all we choose healthy and delicious food. This trend is also observed on week days and holidays. Moreover, the desire to discover traditional, regional dishes or other nations’ culinary culture become a strong motivation for tourists. Many travellers arrive in Hungary with various stereotypes and misinformation, and they leave with a wealth of experience. Hungary is located in the Carpathian Basin and its environmental features (temperate climate zone, 2°C positive tempera- ture anomaly due to the distance from the oceans, four seasons, pedo- and biogeographical richness, etc.) determine the agricultural potential. However, the culinary culture of the nation, customs and development of cuisine are also closely related to the history of the country. Centuries-long migrations of proto-Hungarians and their arrival in the Carpathian Basin have resulted in the continuous adaptation and mixing of traditions, ways of life and methods of various nations (e.g.

  • EUROPEAN THEATRE CONTEXT Linking Bratislava to Moscow and the Urals
    EUROPEAN THEATRE CONTEXT Linking Bratislava to Moscow and the Urals DAGMAR PODMAKOVÁ Institute of Theatre and Film Research, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava Abstract: Every theatrical performance constitutes an unrepeatable, unique event. As opposed to a fixed audiovisual work, a concrete theatrical performance is affected by a variety of in- terferences in the communication channel. Therefore, one is bound to travel to see theatre, or, a theatre travels to reach its audiences. The paper maps out the merits of selected foreign pro- ductions presented within Eurokontext.sk international theatre festival organised by the Slo- vak National Theatre (SND), member of the European Theatre Convention, ETC. The young Slovak professional theatre (founded 95 years ago) is inspired by other theatre cultures, among them being diverse theatre forms in Russia. The authoress focuses on concrete productions of documentary theatre and classical drama, which have recently sparked keen interest in society, including the dropping of some productions from the repertoire. Keywords: Slovak National Theatre, Eurokontext.sk, Maidan Diaries, The Brothers Karamazov, Tannhäuser, Onegin, Three Sisters In November 2015, a new theatre with a seating capacity of 100 was opened in Bratislava. Its name indicates that it focuses on comic theatrical performances. On this occasion, a soap opera actress, also featuring in the productions of small private theatres, gave a radio interview in which she noted that private theatres received minimum funding support from the State. She was critical to the fact that significant public funds were used to subsidise theatres that were not profitable, such as, for instance, the opera. True, all three opera ensembles in Slovakia1 are funded by the State, via the budget chapter of the Ministry of Culture of the Slovak Republic.

Bizonyára tudják, hogy Budapest legismertebb, gyönyörű építményei, látnivalói a kerületünkben kitermelt kövekből állnak: a Lánchíd, a Citadella, a Mátyás-templom, a Halászbástya, az Akadémia, az Opera épülete, az Andrássy út számos palotája. De azt tudják-e, hogy Kőbánya miből épül fel? Kerületünk legfontosabb pillérei valójában nem kőből és habarcsból állnak. Hanem olyan emberekből, akik ebben a kiadványunkban is szerepelnek. Ők teszik olyan erőssé Kőbányát, az ő tetteik, az ő életük az, amelyre egy egész kerület fejlődését alapozzuk. Amivel ők szolgálják nap mint nap Kőbányát, azt nem lehet megtanítani semmilyen iskolában, nem lehet beleírni a munkaköri leírásba – az szívből jön. Ez teszi a foglalkozást hivatássá, ettől válik az ügyszám emberi sorssá, így lesz a gyerekből, a diákból kibontakozó tehetség, a páciensből Józsi bácsi vagy Tóth család – a munkából pedig a közösség szolgálata. Ez az, amitől igazán jó kőbányainak lenni. Igen, fontos a fejlődés, hogy megújuljanak a középületeink, megszépüljenek a köztereink, hogy megfelelő körülményeket biztosítsunk a gyerekeknek, az ügyfeleknek, a betegeknek. De ennél is fontosabb, hogy szeressünk itt élni. Akik hittel és elkötelezettséggel dolgoznak a közösségünkért, azok az emberek teszik igazán szerethetővé Kőbányát.

STREDOEURÓPSKY FESTIVAL KONCERTNÉHO UMENIA Je mnoho festivalov, ktoré sú programovo zamerané na tvorbu skladateľov najrôznejších období - či už v širokom priereze, alebo v zúženom, no hlbšom pohľade na jednu epochu, prípadne sa špecializujú na odkaz jedného sklada­ teľa. Je menej festivalov, ktoré by sa cielene zamerali na prezentovanie zvláš- Jneho, nemenej tak isto tvorivého umeleckého fenoménu - koncertného ume­ nia a jeho nositeľov - interpretov. Práve oni tvoria ten posledný článok, po­ slednú nenahraditeľnú zložku skladateľovho diela, spájajú v ňom svoje tvorčie sily so silami tvorcu a objektívnemu nadčasovému umeleckému tvaru vdychmi život a vtlačia výsostne osobnostnú pečať svojej individuality.
