The Friends of Suzanne Renaud and Bohuslav Reynek
Archives
For generations, Les Amis de Suzanne Renaud et Bohuslav Reynek have preserved manuscripts, printed matter, letters and photographs that are currently being inventoried. Over the last 30 years or so, French and Czech authors who are connoisseurs or specialists have carried out research and various studies on the work of Suzanne Renaud and Bohuslav Reynek (theses, lectures, papers at the Académie delphinale). Articles, reviews and speeches attest to the events that have taken place under the aegis of Romarin or other cultural organizations.
