Orchestra + Percussion = Earthquake!

What happens when six top percussionists step in front of the SNG Maribor Symphony Orchestra? Driving rhythms shake up the orchestra’s traditionally lush sound, and before you can even say, “Orchestral concerts really aren’t for me,” you’ll be swept up in a tsunami of exhilarating energy. The whirlwind on stage will carry you into unexpected musical worlds, full of surprising twists and turns. Add witty direction, contagious energy, and breathtaking virtuosity, and you have the first festival highlight!

Despite the relaxed atmosphere, this concert meets the highest artistic standards. Members of the ensemble developed the program together with the renowned Tonkünstler Orchestra, one of the most respected representatives of the Austrian symphonic tradition. With bold programming, it proves that orchestral music can be thrilling, modern, and accessible to a broad audience. This unique festival experience will delight both music connoisseurs and casual fans alike. Even those who think a concert isn’t complete without electric guitars shaking your bones and raising your pulse will be quickly convinced otherwise!
