To be born high above the ground, almost within the reach of the sky, seemed in itself to promise an exceptional life ahead.

BOHUSLAV MARTINŮ: EARLY ORCHESTRAL WORKS, VOLUME TWO by Michael Crump In 1906 a promising young Czech violinist called Bohuslav Martinů lef his home town of Polička and began life as a student at the Conservatoire in Prague. His studies were made possible largely afer an appeal in his local newspaper raised the necessary funds. Doubtless he had every intention of rewarding the trust thus placed in him by graduating with full honours, but the cultural life of the Czech capital proved to be irresistibly distracting. Te performances at the National Teatre, in particular, drew him like a magnet night afer night, usually in the company of his friend and fellow-student Stanislav Novák. His devotion to the theatre unfortunately led to the neglect of his violin studies and his eventual expulsion from the Conservatoire in 1910, but by this time he was already well aware that his future lay in composition, not performance. He stayed on in Prague, supported by modest fnancial support from his parents, and his love-afair with the National Teatre continued unabated. Novák later wrote a short reminiscence of his friend, giving details of his musical sympathies at this time of his life: He was free, nobody bothered him with counterpoint, he could attend rehearsals of the Philharmonic and read all day, he could compose whatever and however he liked and in the evening he would have to get himself to the theatre at any price. At this time he would never miss a single performance of Smetana’s operas, nor of Rusalka or Te Jacobin. -

Nejen v české společnosti. Jeho život a Odílo se ostatně vyznačuje neustálými přesahy, v místě i v čase. Bohuslav Martinů byl nejen pravým Ministr zahraničních věcí světoobčanem s evropskou adresou, ale i cestovatelem České republiky napříč hudebními žánry, historií a experimenty. Außenminister der Tschechischen Republik S jistou nadsázkou lze říci, že Martinů ve svém díle Foreign minister, koncentroval veškerou naději a odhodlání modernismu Czech Republic první poloviny 20. století, a svým životem odrážel pády a zklamání tehdejší doby. Ty vyústily v nucenou emigraci po podpisu Mnichovské dohody z roku 1938. Je proto pro mě velkou ctí převzít záštitu nad projektem „Martinů Revisited“. Jeho dílo i osud si zaslouží naši pozornost a ohlížení. Pochopením odkazu Bohuslava Martinů jedině získáme. There are few personalities of the calibre and prominence of Bohuslav Martinů, not only in the Czech society but also throughout the world. -
