Slovenian Philharmonic, Marjan Kozina Hall, Ljubljana, at 8 pm
The Ljubljana International Orchestra has been based in Ljubljana since 2013, with members travelling from all winds to prepare the programme over several days. It is a cultural ambassador of the city, portraying the Slovenian capital as a cosmopolitan city, a city of youth, creativity, art and opportunity. This year's concert and the closing of the International Orchestral Academy in the Creative Europe project Sounds of Change will revive the memory of two giants of classical music who have always divided listeners and followers, Wagner and Brahms. They will also perform a new work created especially for the Sounds of Change project and this year's Academy. Wagner's self-composed Mathilde Wesendonck will be performed by Nuška Drašček, conducted by Živa Ploj Peršuh.
