[The wild bouquet]
A bouquet is by nature cheerful, colourful and full of surprises for the recipient. By contrast, a Requiem signals death, the “finite”. Finished is an exciting era in which five young people (Slowind) decided to educate the Slovenian public on daring music very rarely heard in this country.
It is no coincidence, since people rush to musical entertainment and banality, that the Slovenian Ministry of Culture has brought reforms to the country by stopping funding to movements which invite reflection (one of which is Slowind, to whom
the piece is dedicated).
I hope that in this Bouquet every member of the audience will discover their wild flower.
—Vinko Globokar, 2018
The focus of this concert evening will be on two Austrian premieres by Slovenian composers - by the young and internationally acclaimed Nina Šenk and Vinko Globokar, a legend of the European avant-garde. The works are commissions for both ensembles on the occasion of this year's 20th Slowind Festival in Ljubljana, where they had their world premiere on November 15, 2018.
