serves as a pivotal institution for music creativity and career development for young musicians.
Crafting
Musical Futures
We foster the exchange of experience between young emerging musicians and established top soloists and aim to introduce innovative, lesser-known, or unknown repertoire in our concerts, thereby broadening the horizons of both music lovers and performers. We uphold a commitment to the sincere and consistent performance of music, respecting its musical form and historical performance praxis. This dedication is especially evident through our foundational pillars: the Slovenian Youth Orchestra and the Ljubljana International Orchestra.
Visionary Approach
Envisioning a future where every talented and hard-working artist achieves a successful career, ART BSA steadfastly commits to intergenerational and international collaboration. We incorporate diverse art forms into our interdisciplinary programmes, reach wider audiences through live online broadcasts, and implement educational models across Slovenia and Europe, demonstrating our dedication to cultivating appreciation for music and fostering new audiences.
Recognition
and Encore
The impact of ART BSA is underscored by the accomplishments of our alumni, who now also hold integral positions in renowned orchestras worldwide. Our collaboration with the European Sounds of Change project and partnerships across Portugal, Spain, Germany, Serbia, and Slovenia further attest to our commitment to utilizing artistic work as a catalyst for societal transformation. Our activities were held under the honourable patronage of the former Presidents of Slovenia, Dr Danilo Türk and Borut Pahor. In 2018, we were awarded the medal of the Italian President, Sergio Mattarella, for our project to commemorate 100 years since the end of the First World War.
Our Driving Force
ART BSA stands out by empowering young artists with the competence, courage, and professional certification necessary to actively shape their careers, reflecting our ethos of commitment, creativity, and progressiveness. Our commitment to community engagement is showcased through grand finale concerts with local or world star guests, which mark the culmination of our programmes and celebrate the union of learning, performance, and cultural exchange. We remain a connecting, intergenerational, sustainable and environmentally and socially responsible partner.
