Held each summer in a picturesque Alpine town, the Bled Festival first took of in 1996. It is a classical music festival of a broad horizon, regularly also inviting jazz, chanson or folk artists. Furthermore, concerts are but a part of its programme that also puts a very strong focus on young musicians. Not only does an international cast of mentors work with them via workshops and masterclasses, young and upcoming players also make up a sizeable part of the line-up.
The festival is managed by Bled Culture Institute and is led by its founder and artistic director, the acclaimed violinist Jernej Brence.
Cello Attacca! is a group of young cellists, joined and led by their professor Karmen Pečar Koritnik. They closed the 2016 edition of Bled Festival with a concert at St. Martin's Church, Bled.

FV Music is Slovenia's oldest independent label and promoter of alternative music. It was established in 1985 by musicians from the group Borghesia and a circle of music fans and activists that had previously run Disco FV, the first punk-alternative club in Ljubljana. For several years the only Yugoslav independent label, FV was born out of necessity to satisfy the creative impulses of its founding members.
Today it is the agency for promoting and booking alternative and garage rock'n'roll bands run by Monika Skaberne, a member of the original FV group. It has a strong network of relationships with clubs and local promoters in Slovenia and other ex-Yugoslavian countries, a number of long-standing contacts with European and American agencies, and a roster of some of the most exciting and popular R'n'R bands in Slovenia and Croatia – including KUD Idijoti, Thunderbabies, and Bambi Molesters.
