The ceremonial opening of Gregory Porter’s concert evening at O2 universum on January 20, 2026, will be presented by the project Cello Republic & Michaela Gemrotová, which combines top-tier performance quality with a modern, emotionally rich musical expression.
Michaela Gemrotová is one of the most distinctive figures on the Czech music and theatre scene. She has an extensive portfolio of successful opera, musical theatre, and concert projects and is renowned for her exceptional stylistic versatility, naturally blending classical technical precision with a contemporary artistic approach.
She joins forces with the innovative string ensemble Cello Republic, one of the most prominent Czech crossover projects of today, which has long been pushing the boundaries of the traditional perception of the cello. Through their energetic stage presence, original arrangements, and collaborations with artists across musical genres, Cello Republic has established a strong position not only on the domestic but also on the international scene.
The joint performance by Cello Republic & Michaela Gemrotová will offer audiences an extraordinary musical entrée, sensitively setting the mood for the evening and underscoring the exclusivity of the concert by one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary soul, jazz, and blues.
