Czech music has deep roots: from medieval church choirs and folk ballads to the national awakenings of the 19th century. In the 20th century under communism, music became a voice of freedom, with jazz and rock playing key roles. Following the Velvet Revolution in 1989, the Czech scene opened to global influence while maintaining its distinct folk-pop heritage.
