Kaleidoscopia

After a year of work Bartoš can finally show his new music to the world. This album shows the big growth of the composer‘s talent and his mastery over new instruments and sounds. From quiet piano melodies, through uplifting multi-instrumental compositions and all the way to loud electronica, he creates a beautiful musical world.

"To me all music in some way is about life. With this album i tried to reflect the different parts of the soul‘s journey, as it comes into this world and learns about this beautiful physical reality and the relationship it has to the inner and transcendental world. It is a celebration of existence and an attempt to give a musical body to the strangely human mystical experience that is life“ - says the composer.
