The organizers decided to present classical music in a not so classical way, performed in different untraditional places of the city; the quality of interpretation however remains untouched.
All performances commemorate 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s act of rebellion against Catholic church and represent the uniting and conflicting tendencies of the protestant and catholic music.
The Znojmo Music Festival started on July 6, 2017 and will finish July 23, 2017 at the city of Znojmo.
