Join us for an evening of unique musical experience with Borzak, led by Bor Zakonjšek, this time enriched by the collaboration of internationally acclaimed Cuban percussionist and composer Eliel Lazo, who also recorded an album with the ensemble.

Lazo, known for his powerful and innovative approach to Afro-Cuban jazz and contemporary funk, brings a rich blend of traditional Cuban rhythms, modern jazz, soul, and global influences. His career, marked by performances around the world and collaborations with top artists such as Michel Camilo and the DR Big Band, combines deep cultural roots with a modern, innovative musical vision.

Together with Borzak—a diverse ensemble exploring a collage of musical styles—the performance moves seamlessly from Cuban grooves to Balkan melodic influences, creating a sound that stands apart from the typical Slovenian music scene. This is music without clichés or predictable rhythms; instead, it unfolds as an open-ended story shaped by original compositions and driven by strong improvisation.

Don’t expect the ordinary—expect a bold, immersive musical journey.
