dnevi stare glasbe
 
Nekajdnevni festival, ki si je v petletnem delovanju že dobro utrdil svoje mesto med goriškimi poslušalci, bo letos segel po zapuščini izven meja Evrope. Glasbene tradicije oddaljenih kultur in živa povezanost stare glasbe s sodobno vedno bolj oblikujejo identiteto tega dobro obiskanega koncertnega dogajanja, ki se na različnih prizoriščih odvija pod okriljem Kulturnega doma Nova Gorica.
 
 
 
Letošnja tema, ki jo je umetniški vodja Bor Zuljan, lutnjist in vsestranski glasbenik, poklicno razpet med Švico in domačimi kraji, poimenoval Potovanja, se bo začela v starodavni glasbi Indije, se na različne načine prepletla z evropsko tradicijo, segla na Balkan in se zaključila v Mehiki 16. stoletja.
 
 
 
Novost letošnje edicije so USTVARJALNE DELAVNICE pod vodstvom skladatelja in čembalista Milka Lazarja, ki ga stik starodavnih izročil in sodobnih načinov komponiranja privlači v vseh obdobjih njegovega ustvarjanja. Prijavijo se lahko inštrumentalisti in komponisti, pa tudi muzikologi in vsi ostali, ki v stari glasbi iščejo navdih za nova zvočenja. Na srečanjih z razgibano ponudbo bodo imeli udeleženci priložnost podrobno pogledati v izzive  in pasti igranja starih inštrumentov in njihovega vključevanja v sodobne kompozicije. Ob predavanjih in koncertih, individualnih in skupinskih urah, med začrtanimi okviri in improvizacijio, se bo njihovo druženje zakjučilo z javnim nastopom. Festival, ki je v preteklosti sicer napolnjeval tudi slikovita kraška prizorišča, bo letos prvič gost prenovljene renesančne Vile Vipolže v Goriških Brdih, ki poleg slikovitega okolja ponuja še odlične prostore za nastope in delavnice.

Na otvoritvenem koncertu bosta nastopila mlada virtuoza na sitarju, Rohan Dasgupta in Deepshankar Bhattacharjee, s katerima se potovanje začenja v Indiji. Iz te dežele črpa navdih italijanski glasbeni projekt Musa Indiana, v katerem z nenavadno kombinacijo inštrumentov zaigrajo čembalistka Paola Erdas, lutnjist Fabio Accurso in tablist Shyamal Maitra. Preizkušanje nenavadnih kombinacij starih in sodobnih inštrumentov ter stare glasbe za sodobni čas se nadaljuje v triu Juhart-Lazar-Drevenšek. Izjemna srbska vokalista in poznavalca balkanskega ljudskega izročila, brata Teofilović, bosta v triu z Borom Zuljanom predstavila nov program, s katerim nas povabita na potovanje po Balkanu 17. stoletja. Festival se zaključuje v sončni Mehiki preteklih stoletij, kamor nas na končno postajo odpelje mlada skupina Son Garnacha.

The Nova Gorica Arts Centre (Kulturni dom Nova Gorica) was opened as a regional cultural and community centre back in 1980. Besides being a prominent concert and film theatre venue, it is nowadays also the most important concert producer for classical and early music in Western Slovenia. Besides using its own two event halls, the Arts Centre often sets up concerts at other venues, most regularly at the Kromberk Castle and the Franciscan Monastery at Kostanjevica, a hill just above Nova Gorica.

Its visual arts branch, the Nova Gorica City Gallery, is located within the Nova Gorica theatre building complex. The Arts Centre organises a range of other programmes, including the Pixxelpoint International Festival of Computer Art, the October Jazz festival, the International Saxophone Meeting and the Flores Musicae Festival of mediaeval and renaissance music. All in all, the Nova Gorica Arts Centre organises more than 500 events with almost 65,000 visitors per year.

Collaborations

The Arts Centre collaborates with numerous producers and associations. Very notable and extensive is the work done with the Slovene branch of Jeunesses Musicales International, dedicated to the promotion of music education in primary and secondary schools in the wider region.

In the field of classical music, the centre regularly cooperates with the Academy of Music, the Ljubljana Music and Ballet Conservatory, Slovene Philharmonic Orchestra, the RTV Slovenia Music Production Unit, Glasbena matica Ljubljana, Society of Slovene Composers, the Ljubljana Festival, Imago Sloveniae and others.

Its close regional partners are Prosvetno društvo Soča Kanal (responsible for contemporary music festival Kogoj’s Days), the Union of Primorska Music Schools, the Italy based Cultural Centre Gorizia, the association Controtempo Cormons (IT), also responsible for the Festival of Jazz & Wine of Peace, Ensemble Dramsam. the association Progetto Musica (IT), Centro Giuliano di Musica Antica (IT) and Ensemble Dramsam (IT).

Classical and early music programme

The longest running programme at the centre has been presenting classical music since 1980. Simply called the Concert Season (Glasbeni abonma), it welcomed many internationally acclaimed musicians and featured almost all leading Slovene musicians. Among them were soloists such as Irena Grafenauer, Marjana Lipovšek, Tatjana Blome (DE), Natalie Clein (UK) and Grigorij Žislin (RU), orchestras like the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra (RU), the Kiev Chamber Orchestra (UA), the Camerata Frankonia Chamber Orchestra (DE), the Vienna Concert-Verein Orchestra (AT), and various ensembles like the String Quartet Tchaikovsky (RU), The Dominant Quartet (RU), Slowind and Carmina Slovenica.

Of a similar nature but done on a smaller scale is the Castle harmonies (Grajske harmonije) cycle, taking place in the hall of the Kromberk Castle and co-produced with the Goriška Museum. These evenings with smaller chamber ensembles and soloists have been going on since 2012, and are a continuation of the 1990s and early 2000s series Goriška Muses, held at Dobrovo Castle. Some of the guests include Duo Claripiano, Jasna Corrado Merlak, Sebastian Bertoncelj, Ensemble Les Eléments (CH), Nadežda Tokareva (RU), Elena Graf (DE),

Another spatially outsourced cycle called Music from the Gardens of St. Francis is a series of concerts held in the beautiful surroundings of the Franciscan Monastery at Kostanjevica above Nova Gorica, designed primarily for young Slovene musicians.

In 2011 a new festival going by the name Days of Early Music was first set up in Nova Gorica (merging with the preexisting Royal Court Music International Festival). Organised in cooperation with well-established festivals Musica Cortese from Italy and Dvigrad from Croatian Istria, the festival was broad in scope, presenting geographically unbound interpretations of early music. The festival took place at the centre itself, yet also at the Hall of the Franciscan Monastery of Kostanjevica, the Villa Vipolže manor, the Kromberk Castle and some other venues in the region.

Apart from these international festivals, Nova Gorica Arts Centre also co-produced two cross-border music festivals with Italian partners, called Between the Sounds of Places and ECHOS - Cross-border Echoes.

Some of the staged artists were Oliver Lake, Evan Parker, Bob Brozman (US), Katie Graham (US), Eric Sardinas & Big Motor (US), The Fonda/Stevens Group (US), Ken Vandermark (US), Zlatko Kaučič, Vasko Atanasovski Trio, Mia Žnidaršič, etc. Alongside all of this, there are many standalone concerts that range from rock and pop to world music, folk, etc

Film, multimedia and other programmes

The Film Theatre programme is more or less focused on art film, and the centre is a part of the Art Cinema Network.

The bar, operated by the centre, is also the place for various lectures, round tables, photographic exhibitions, smaller concerts, etc. A vurious part of the programme is a series of live interviews with remarkable people, from mountaineers to missionaries, from film authors (who accopany their film screenings) to photoraphers.

The Arts Centre is paying much attention to musical education and collaborates with all the elementary and secondary schools in the wider region. Each year, they organise around one hundred and fifty educational or entertainment programmes for the young.
