The second goal of the festival is to bring new performers who have never before performed in Slovenia. The festival is produced by [[Pekarna Magdalena Network]] and takes place annually at [[Gustaf Hall, Pekarna|Gustaf Hall]], [[Satchmo Jazz Club, Maribor|Satchmo Jazz Club]], Kino Gledališče, and Cantante Restaurant. The many venues have brought more interest in the festival and increased attendance. The best-attended concert was a most unusual yet very exceptional and original one: it was given by Xu Fengxia, a ''guzheng'' player and singer from China. |
