2005

Every year, world-class stars come to the festival in Český Krumlov. It was no different in 2005. The opening concert belonged to the Latvian cellist Misha Maisky and the Korean violinist Min-Jung Suh. Another musical genre was represented by a world jazz legend – trumpet player Maynard Ferguson, then one of the first Czech folk bands Spiritual Quintet, the unique guitarist Štěpán Rak or the legendary group Elán. For the first time, a national evening took place, which has been a tradition ever since. Every year, the festival presents the culture of another country, including its typical gastronomy. In the fourteenth year, the Brewery Garden turned into unfettered Spain.
