Artists
The Janoška Ensemble, with its distinctive approach to diverse musical styles, transcends genre boundaries to create a unique “polyglot” musical language. Their debut CD The Janoška Style, released by Deutsche Grammophon in 2016, achieved gold status within just a few months. When arranging classical repertoire, the ensemble embraces spontaneous creativity, producing music that is both innovative and vibrant – music that “lives and breathes.” The arrangements are crafted by three brothers from Bratislava – Ondrej, Roman, and František Janoška – along with their brother-in-law from Konstanz, Julius Darvaš. Their concerts are known for their strong audience connection, emotional engagement, humor, exceptional virtuosity, and even theatrical flair, often earning standing ovations. Thanks to The Janoška Style album, the ensemble has received invitations from major figures in the music world, including Anna Netrebko, Al Jarreau, Bobby McFerrin, Juan Diego Flórez, Julian Rachlin, Randy Newman, and others. Members of the ensemble also regularly conduct masterclasses. In addition to The Janoška Style, the ensemble has released the albums Revolution (2019), The Big B (2022), and their most recent, The Four Seasons – Janoška Style (2024).
