I’m in love, so in love that stars are growing on my back.” – Filip Topol

Václav Havel can be credited with one of Filip Topol’s first performances, when the singer performed before the Plastic People of the Universe at Hrádeček. At the same time, the lyrics and music of his band Psí vojáci are filled with heart, rawness and emotion and appeal to young people even today. The exhibition Music on the Canvas, held on the day of the 38th anniversary of Psí vojáci’s debut concert at the Prague Jazz Days festival, presents pictures by the young artist Sára Svobodová inspired by the band’s songs and significant moments in their story. The show offers visitors a unique opportunity to share the artist’s feelings while listening to particular songs on MP3 players located by each picture.

Veterans of that time, drummer David Skála and manager Romek Hanzlík, will speak about Psí vojáci.

The band Kopyrajt will perform and Hana Řičicová will serve as compere.

Organised by the Václav Havel Library in cooperation with the College of Media and Journalism.
