The RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra marks an important milestone in the life of one of the most important composers of Slovene popular music, Mojmir Sepe. The programme will focus on his symphonic and big band compositions (including View from the Castle, Summer Nocturne and Postcards from Ljubljana) and will also include selections from his film music and some of his best-known songs. Mojmir Sepe has earned himself a permanent place in the musical history of Slovenia with eternally beautiful compositions that still have the power to touch us deeply today. For example the moving songs he created with his wife Majda Sepe, one of Slovenia’s greatest singers of popular song, or the humorously entertaining fruits of his collaboration with Frane Milčinski, aka Ježek, to mention but two of the many singers with whom Mojmir Sepe worked closely. A trained trumpeter, he played in the Radio Ljubljana Dance Orchestra from 1949 until 1970. During this period he also founded the Mojmir Sepe Ensemble and recorded one of the first jazz albums in what was then Yugoslavia. He later became a programme editor for popular music at Radio Ljubljana and was also active as a composer. In the 1960s and 1970s he was a regular presence at the Slovene Song Festival as a conductor and songwriter. Mojmir Sepe may legitimately be called the father of Slovene popular song and chanson.
