Skrýše a skála

About This Movie

Skrýše a skála is quite a gem, capturing the last moments of bassist Eduard Haken's storied career. The atmosphere is reverent, filled with the echoes of Dvořák’s Biblical Songs performed in the intimate St. James' Church. Haken, even in his later years, delivers a vocal performance that feels both poignant and vibrant—it's as if time stands still while he sings. The intertwining of music and scripture adds a layer of depth, creating a reflective experience that goes beyond just watching a concert. You can feel the history in the walls of the church, the pacing is contemplative, allowing each piece to breathe. It's not just about the music; it's the emotional weight carried through Haken's artistry at a pivotal moment in his life.
