What is unique about this stream is the broadcasting of performances by musicians from two places at the same time.
This is possible thanks to the use of ultra low latency technology developed by CESNET. The technology connects two CESNET MVTP Audio devices via the Internet in the fastest possible way. Both points are connected with audio and video. Other peripherals, such as cameras and imaging monitors, must also operate with the lowest possible delay.
Technical support was provided by Cesnet, Disk Systems in Prague and TV JOJ in Košice. It is a unique form of stream streamed from two places at the same time. This form of low-latency brige was used commercially for the first time in this range. Some performers played from a studio in Prague and some from Košice. Thanks to this technology, the musicians could play together.
The following performers at the Prague studio: Čechomor, Taras Voloschuk (former Čechomor double bass player from Ukraine), Lenka Dusilová, Voxel, Michal Malátný and František Táborský (Chinaski).
The band Kandráčovci, Tomi Okres (Chinaski), Marian Čekovský (musician and Superstar jury) and others played from Košice.
You can find the full length concert on the Čechomor youtube channel.
"The war in Ukraine, which expels mainly women and children from their homes, can not leave anyone indifferent, not even us musicians. All around us now we see a lot of solidarity and help to the people of Ukraine, who find themselves homeless from day to day, without help. That is why we also decided to help with musicians from the Czech Republic and Slovakia with our friends make a concert stream and ask all our fans and spectators to help those who need it most right now with their financial resources, ”explains František Černý from Čechomor .
The audience of the stream was conducted by the journalist and moderator Jindřich Šídlo from Prague and the frontman of the Kandráčovci group Ondrej Kandráč from Košice, Slovakia.
"I have a lot of friends and acquaintances in Ukraine. My band and I are strongly tied to their culture and strong human stories. That is why I accept the call to help the most vulnerable without hesitation. Let's make this world a better place. I'll start with myself and join the live - stream concert, together with our friends from the fraternal Czech Republic. Join us, friends too,” says Ondrej Kandráč, who lives with his family a few kilometers from the Ukrainian border.
During the concert, the audience sent financial contributions to the collection of the Kooperativa Foundation darujme.cz/kooperativaproukrajinu
