Vojtech Havel, Influential Czech Cellist and Composer, Dies at 62
Briefly

Irena & Vojtěch Havels made acoustic ambient music that drew from American minimalism, European early music, and Eastern philosophies. Their unique sound resonated deeply in Prague's gothic and baroque temples.
Bryce Dessner's sister first heard the couple playing on the street, leading to a love for their record Little Blue Nothing, which Dessner called 'one of our favorite records of all time, minimal and haunting.'
The Havels received international acclaim, inviting collaboration with renowned artists, and produced their first new material album in 14 years, showcasing their enduring influence in the music scene.
In the documentary Little Blue Nothing, Irena Havlová reflects on their journey, emphasizing the time it took to receive recognition and the evolution of their music over the decades.
