Jiri Kaderabek(I)

Kaderabek's music, "capturing a peculiarly evocative image" (New York Times), "well crafted and compelling with its playful banter" (New York Arts), "reminding of cubist paintings by Picasso", "with the aim of nullification of progression and logical association, the establishment of timelessness" and "almost always revealing some mischievous coup de théâtre, curiously shocking yet at the same time incontrovertibly one with the work" (BBC), has garnered numerous awards and nominations, been commissioned and performed by orchestras and ensembles of such renown as the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Prague Radio Symphony Orchestra, Prague Phiharmonia, Anhaltische Philharmonie, Slovak Philharmonic Choir, New Juilliard Ensemble, Ostravská Banda, Orchestr Berg, Fourbythree, Sybarite5, Ensemble Montage, Ensemble Calliopée, Fama Quartet, presented at festivals, including MoMA Summergarden, Prague Spring, Moving Sounds, Music with a View, Trieste Prima, Noorderzon, Ostrava Days and Contempuls, and broadcast by radio and television stations, such as the BBC, Czech Radio, Czech Television, VPRO and OOG (the Netherlands), Magyar Rádió and Radio Slovenija. In 2012, a Kaderabek piece represented the Czech Republic at the International Rostrum of Composers in Stockholm.
