Lent Festival


Each June, the medieval Lent district along the Drava River, the historic squares, picturesque streets of the Old Town, and even the mighty city park emerge as festival venues bursting with art, culture, and creativity. With thirty years of tradition, Lent Festival is one of the oldest and largest open-air festivals in Central Europe. Every year, it welcomes about two hundred thousand visitors; almost every fourth Slovene has visited it at least once. It celebrates art, culture, and creativity of all genres for all generations, providing a space for discovery, learning, meeting, and coexisting in a variety of cultures. For the thirtieth time, the festival will transform the city into a giant stage and a vibrant meeting point for artistic expressions. Lent is a member of the International Festivals and Events Association (IFEA) and the Association of Slovene Festivals (SloFA).

Overview



Fields of Experimental Music in Slovenia

Luka T. Zagoričnik


Let's take a ride on the term experimental music, which currently mainly defines certain more fringe musical practices, across the expanses of various musical plains, styles and genres. We can apply this (overly) broad term to designate the varied creative simmering in certain segments of the present-day Slovenian music scene. A scene that spans the realms of electro-acoustic music, musique concrète, experimental music in the context of modern classical music, free improvisation, experimental electronic music and sound art as well as their associated present-day trends. This scene is diverse and exceptionally agile. It has developed a strong infrastructure for itself (festivals, concert series, labels, international networks) and exists in the space between self-organising and DIY models and institutional environments.
