Bachtrack says: "Má vlast guides its listener on an aural tour of the landscapes and legends that make up the country now known as the Czech Republic – and in doing so, this landmark work serves as a foundational text in the creation of its national identity." 🧵 2/2

Barely had the applause in Osaka faded when we hopped on the shinkansen for the 500 km ride to the capital. 🚄 Time to keep up the pace!

A Czech orchestra, Russian born conductor with American and French passports and a Korean pianist living in Germany performed Czech, French, and Russian music, as well as an Italian encore, to an enthusiastic Japanese audience. Osaka once again proved that music knows no borders.

Orchestra on tour = fuel in the veins. Taipei → high-speed train → Kaohsiung → shower → Tchaikovsky → tails → LIGHTS → burst of applause. Stop? Restart. ✈️ North-northeast, Osaka. 2,300 km across the ocean. If you love speed, hop on!

After the concert in Taipei, we finally understood what it means to cheer with pure joy. For most of the audience, it was their very first time hearing Smetana’s Má vlast live. 🎶 Truly a moving evening, thank you so much!
