Joseph Tawadros solo oud performance in the Minorite Church at the Festival Maribor, 2015
Running a strong and uniquely conceptualised musical programme, the Maribor Festival has established itself as one of Slovenia’s most respected classical music events. Held for about two weeks each year in September, the festival usually assembles around 150 Slovenian and foreign musicians to play in Maribor (and sometimes also in its neighbouring cities). Its programme is created in collaboration with domestic as well as foreign co-producers and musicians, and is thus featuring many productions that were realised especially for the occasion.
The boldly selected repertoire encompasses both, pieces for chamber orchestras as well as outstanding symphonic and vocal-instrumental works. Many positive foreign critiques of the festival helped defining it as an internationally respected and frequented music festival. The festival's main producer is the central cultural institution in the city, Narodni dom Maribor.

Rockobrobje.com [Rock margins] provides CD, book and concert reviews, interviews with Slovene and international musicians and music activists, press clippings and exclusives. The website is updated every Monday evening. As the name itself suggests the writing mainly focuses on rock music and its hybrids. Interestingly, here you can find a list of recommended albums entitled "100 albumov za samotni otok" (100 albums for the desert island), which will supposedly make your isolation more bearable and pleasant. The author Janez Golič also has a radio show "Drugi val" (Second wave) every Sunday evening at 11:30 P.M. on the radio station Radio Slovenia Second Channel - VAL202, where he presents new album releases and promotes musicians who will be performing in concerts on Slovene stages in the upcoming days.
