Remember, TOMORROW:
Czech out Czechomor & Lenka Dusilova
Sunday, October 15th
New Prague High School Auditorium
Doors open at 7, music starts at 8
And if Sunday doesn’t work, well, there’s Monday! Just in from Peggy Hanson (looks like another of those Erick Sommers’ Press Releases, which I’ve stolen verbatim, those exclamation points are NOT mine!!!):
Breaking News: The internationally acclaimed band “Czechomor” will join Garrison Keillor on Monday! Czechomor played to a packed house at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts only last weekend! The performance will start at 7:00 pm sharp, at WSU’s Somsen Auditorium. Tickets are only $15 and are available at the door!
Not only will Garrison regale us with stories of Lake Wobegon and his thoughts on the politics of the day, but we’ll be treated to the inspiring music of this outstanding group.
The winner of four Czech Music Academy Awards (the Czech version of the Grammy), Czechomor’s music is rooted in Moravian village music. The band’s unique mélange of traditional folk mixed with Ottoman dissonance, Gypsy czardas, Napoleonic mustering dances and Celtic rhythms have succeeded in winning over young and old alike, with over 200,000 albums sold.
This is an event no one will want to miss!! Please forward this message to all your friends!!!! As ex-president Václav Havel’s favorite ensemble, Czechomor has entertained celebrity audiences at charity concerts across the European continent, including the Royal Albert Hall in London. See www.czechomorustour.com
The opportunity remains to rub elbows with Garrison Keillor at the pre-event dinner/reception, Lake Lodge from 5:00 to 6:30 pm. Several tickets are still available at the DFL office, 685 West 5th Street, Winona.

Got that?
