S

ince 1995, pianist Robert Kolinsky and his team have succeeded in bringing prestigious artists to Basel for the MARTINŮ FESTTAGE once a year in autumn. In doing so, he remains true to his original idea of inspiring national and international greats with the music of the Czech composer Bohuslav Martinů and motivating them to take it on tours around the world.

The FESTTAGE are supported by the honorary patronage of the former US Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright, the star conductor Mariss Jansons and Federal Councillor Alain Berset.
