The [[Arsana Music Art Association]] organises the [[Arsana International Music Festival]], which -together with the [[Art Stays, International Festival of Contemporary Art]]- represents the music part of the Art Ptuj Festival. Each year the Arsana International Music Festival brings many locally known as well as world renowned musicians of diverse musical backgrounds including folk, jazz and classical, to the many different music venues of Ptuj.

==Performers==
Among the many renowned musicians that have performed at this music festival are: violinist Stefan Milenković, pianist Chris Jarrett and guitarist Miran Tadić, who together with actor Rade Šerbedžija presented songs from their new album ''Nine New Ones and Barbara'' (Devet novih in Barbara). Each year the festival presents popular Slovene musicians and singers like [[Mia Žnidarič]] and [[Maja Keuc]] and bands, such as [[Terrafolk]] and [[Vox Arsana]], as well as musicians from all over the world, giving them the opportunity to collaborate.

In 2012 the Arsana Music Art Association expands its musical endeavours as the city of Ptuj is a partner of Maribor, the [[Maribor, European Capital of Culture 2012|cultural capital of Europe]]. The Art Ptuj Festival will thus have the opportunity to host some cultural activities within this main European summer event.
