Your guides on this musical journey will be outstanding musical personalities whose passion is truly contagious:
Eva Pieronová (soprano): Renowned opera singer and sought-after vocal coach. She studied her flawless bel canto technique directly in Vienna under the Italian master A. Carangelo (a classmate of the legendary Luciano Pavarotti). Her voice captivates with dizzying coloraturas, yet she commands a diverse repertoire with equal ease and dramatic depth. She is a winner of international competitions spanning from London to the USA.
Bohuš Balko (piano): Brilliant pianist, pedagogue, and graduate of the Academy of Performing Arts (VŠMU) in Bratislava. He is known for his extraordinary sensitivity to dynamics and improvisational skills, through which he lends each piece a unique, unrepeatable dimension.
Miroslav Baloga (violin): An exceptional violin virtuoso with an incredible life story. He served as the principal violist at the State Opera in Banská Bystrica, performed with prestigious ensembles ranging from classical to ethno music, and as a member of a musical group, represented Slovakia at the Slovak Representative House across six Olympic Games worldwide.
Rastislav Kaličák (violin – alternation): Fresh blood and the rising generation of violin virtuosos. He is a successful graduate of the conservatory and a laureate of several prestigious performance competitions. Today, he continues to develop his exceptional technical abilities and feel for tonal graduation as a member of the prestigious military artistic ensemble of the Slovak Republic. His playing brings a fierce energy, youthful enthusiasm, and a deep respect for tradition to the stage.
