About the event
The Avanti! Chamber Orchestra opens a window to the Balkans.ç
Where are the Balkans?
If you ask a Viennese person, everything starts here. (If you step back, you’ll see it’s already quite close to the city center…).
That’s what Slavoj Žižek says.
For Finns, the first thing that probably comes to mind when thinking about the Balkans is Martti Ahtisaari and Kosovo.
But how is Balkan reality reflected in contemporary music?
