Mikuláš Tichý

Mikuláš Tichý comes from Posázaví, whose landscape forms an important inspiration for his work. He currently lives in Prague and works as a composer, pianist and multi-instrumentalist. In his music, he combines elements of classical composition with minimalism through the poetics of his own worldview. In his instrumental compositions, often accompanied by electronic elements, he creates dreamlike landscapes of feelings as well as the more sober mornings of everyday that breathe their own dynamism and earthiness. His music reminds that music itself is the Esperanto of human souls. Mikuláš Tichý is the author of the music for the computer game Here To Stay and the theatre production “Glory of the Daughter”, presented by the Prague theatre La Fabrika. He also performed with the ensemble Stro_my in European cities such as Szczecin, Paris, Warsaw, Berlin and Belgrade. As part of the tour, he presented his composition Restless Being, which he composed for the 200th anniversary of Bedřich Smetana's birth. He studied composition at the Jan Deyl Conservatory in Prague and in addition to his own work, he is engaged in music in the band RACH.
