Currently about the festival
![Während seiner Gymnasialzeit in Brno studierte Hrůša Klavier und Posaune und entwickelte sein Interesse am Dirigieren. Später studierte er Dirigieren an der Akademie der musischen Künste in Prag bei Jiří Bělohlávek, Radomil Eliška und Leoš Svárovský. Im Jahr 2000 nahm er am Prager-Frühling-Dirigentenwettbewerb teil. 2003 war er Gewinner des internationalen Lovro-von-Matačić-Dirigierwettbewerbs in Zagreb, Kroatien.[1] In seinem Graduierungskonzert im Jahr 2004 im Rudolfinum dirigierte er Josef Suks Asrael-Sinfonie mit den Prager Radiosinfonikern. Zurzeit vervollständigt Hrůša seine Studien mit einer Dissertation zu zeitgenössischen tschechischen Komponisten. Hrůša benennt Bělohlávek als einen seiner wichtigsten Mentoren.[2]](https://festival.cz/wp-content/uploads/fly-images/68270/Jakub-Hrusa-©-Andreas-Herzau-5-1-560x310-c.jpg)
