Info

Metoděj Prajka, born in 1898 in the small town of Lanzhot, had to travel as a musician with his father after the early death of his mother in order to earn money for the family. His only musical education came from playing in his father's band; he never attended a music school. However, during his time in the military, he took every opportunity to further his musical knowledge. Metodej Prajka composed throughout his entire life, creating numerous marches, polkas, and waltzes in the Moravian style. He passed away in 1962 at the age of 63.
