Artistic rendering of a major concert by Pražský výběr at the O2 Arena with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra.

Pretty Aninka is terribly lazy, she just wants to sleep, her mother tries in vain to get her to do any work. Even Toník, her boyfriend, cannot convince her that she cannot just lie in her blankets all the time. There is a storm coming, everyone is trying to get hay under the roof, but Aninka is lying under a tree and would rather go to the Thunderclaps than toil here. And that morning the Thunderclaps took her to their heavenly chamber. There the poor girl has to serve them. One of them, Tlučhrom, even wants to marry her. But Toník, her sweetheart, and his mother search for her all over the world and with the help of good people they even get to the Thunderclaps' kingdom. The cooper hid them in the barrels that the Thunderclaps had come for so that they could roll them around the sky in joy. It won't take them much trouble to outwit the stupid hulks and get Aninka back among the people. And now that Aninka was in her wedding dress, she could go to the altar with Toník.

The hero of the story is a forty-something intellectual, a sensitive composer of classical music. His exclusive profession, his work, which is actually incomprehensible to those around him, and his deep inner passion set him apart from the conformist milieu. Therefore, he tries to search for the "lark's silence" - a new strength, purity, truth, essence and roots of Czechism. However, on his return from the oppressive, alienated big city to his native village, to his former home, to nature, a deep disillusionment awaits him: he discovers that the once idyllic village has lost not only its face, but also any manifestation of spiritual life in its foolish attempt to resemble the city.
