    Rok české hudby 2014 V posledních letech jsme svědky až nepřehledného množství „roků“ a „dnů“ zasvěcených různým tématům, většinou z iniciativy nadná- rodních administrativ. Rok české hudby je ovšem záležitostí tradiční a přirozeně i v zahraničí očekávanou s kořeny v r. 1924, kdy se poprvé slavilo kulaté výročí národního skladatele B. Smetany (1824–1884) a zároveň proběhl mj. i festival soudobé hudby s komorní hudbou L. Janáčka (* 1854). Jsou to roky zakončené čtyřkou, protože do těchto let spadá výročí zhruba stovky významných hudebních umělců u nás – B. Smetany, A. Dvořáka, L. Janáčka, J. Suka, E. F. Buriana, folkloristy F. Sušila, ale také např. K. Kryla a E. Olmerové a řady dalších. V r. 2014 uplyne kulatých sto let od narození dirigenta a skladatele R. Kubelíka, jehož jméno je spjato s různými milníky historie České filharmonie, nebo klavíristy a skladatele J. Páleníčka, výrazného interpreta klavírního díla Janáčka a Martinů. Z osobností spjatých s operou vzpomeňme pří- telkyni G. Verdiho sopranistku T. Stolzovou (+ 1834), sopranistku Metropolitní opery J. Novotnou (+ 1994), vynikající Rusalku a Ma- řenku M. Šubrtovou (* 1924). Šedesát let uplyne také od založení Janáčkovy filharmonie Ostrava. Rok české hudby 2014 se poprvé odehrává pod patronací umělec- kého páru s vynikající mezinárodní prestiží – mezzosopranistky M. Kožené a šéfdirigenta Berlínské filharmonie Sira S. Rattla. Je otevřeným projektem, do kterého se hlásí pořadatelé profesionální i neprofesionální kultury všech žánrů a formátů se svými projekty. Všechna tato mnohost je spjata logem Roku české hudby. Se zvláštní nabídkou se setkáte také na ČT ART a na Vltavě Českého rozhlasu. K programu přispějí významně ostravští pořadatelé, zejména Colours of Ostrava, MHF Janáčkův máj, Janáčkova filharmonie Ostrava, Ostravské centrum nové hudby a Národní divadlo moravskoslezské, které se navíc pražským provedením své inscenace Mirandolina 7.
