«I am convinced that had he lived in an environment of artistic freedom, he would have become a major international composer — not just a regional one.»
— Jakub Hrůša, conductor
Go to the media«Among all the unjustly forgotten composers, Kabeláč is a true, unique gem.»
— Albrecht Mayer, oboist
«With most of the unknown, forgotten composers, it is individual works that stand out due to their quality. With Kabeláč, however, it is actually everything we've been able to bring to life so far—his chamber music, choral works, and especially his symphonies—that is striking!»
— Stefan Lang, head of music production at DLF Kultur
«It is high time for a renaissance of his music.»
— Cameron Carpenter, organist

Streams is an abstract exploration of bodies in space, danced to a percussion score by Miloslav Kabelac. Alvin Ailey’s highly structured yet fluid compilation of solos, duets, and group choreography reflects the formal, meditative mood of Kabelac’s music. While there is no narrative, the movement and music arouse distinct thoughts and feelings, evoking images and sensations inspired by bodies of water—from a gentle brook to a turbulent ocean—that correlate to the changing tides within us. Walter Terry of The Saturday Review described Streams as "a stunning group work built chiefly on diagonal lines and evoking the title in abstract form through varying speeds, eddyings, flowings, racings, and floatings, all related to moods of jubilance, sadness, acceptance, and glee," while The New York Times wrote, “It exposes its dancers and their technique in ways I find often heroic and beautiful.”
