Background
The roots of the Maribor Festival date back to 1963 when a festival of baroque music was organised by the Concert Management Maribor. In 1994 the festival was held with its concept and name changed to "Glasbeni September" (Musical September), an International Chamber Music Festival, under the artistic directorship of the pianist and professor Janko Šetinc. It has taken place every year in Maribor for the past 10 years. Up to 2007 the festival programme was created by well-known chamber musician, Croatian horn player Radovan Vlatković.
The festival is also distinguished for its unique approach to organisation as the invitations to participate in the festival have not been given to chamber ensembles with their concert repertoire being pre-defined but rather, in the majority of cases, to top musicians – soloists – who have then created ensembles in Maribor according to the programme selected by the artistic director. Since 2008 the festival has been run under the new name Maribor Festival and since 2010 it has been produced by the Slovene Philharmonic String Chamber Orchestra.
Programme
In the first years the festival was dedicated mainly to baroque music, but later it offered a distinguished range of chamber music from the Baroque era to present times. In the last years the chamber music from various periods has been joined by symphonic music, a special evening dedicated to multimedia projects (combinations of music and photography or video) and different crossover genres (jazz and ethno music). The series of concerts includes also morning matinees.
Acclaimed musicians from all over the world have been part of this innovative festival: Boris Berezovski, Vlatko Stefanovski, Joseph Tawadros, Knut Erik Sundquist, Giovanni Sollima, William Burton, Katie Noonan, Luka Šulić, Danny Spooner, Marko Letonja, Vasko Atanasovski and many other eminent instrumental and vocal soloists and choirs.
The Maribor Festival enjoys international acclamation also by many critics, among them John Allison from the The Telegraph newspaper in London that rated the festival with four stars and described it as "one of the best European summer festivals".
Venues
The Maribor Festival takes place in Maribor venues such as the Union Hall, Rotovž Square, Knights Hall at Maribor Castle, Maribor Cathedral, Casina Hall and the Old Hall at the Slovene National Theatre Maribor, and the Narodni dom Hall in Maribor. Concerts are held not only in concert halls, churches, and castles of Maribor, but also in some picturesque settings such as the Knights Hall at Ptuj Castle in nearby cities (Ptuj, Slovenj Gradec).
