The programme includes cult works by the twentieth-century composers R. Strauss, B. A. Zimmerman, I. Xenakis and G. Ligeti, in their first performances by the Slovenian Philharmonic. The orchestra will be conducted by Gregor Mayrhofer, who was assistant to the long-serving chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker Sir Simon Rattle. Further variety will be added to this interesting and unique programme by the presence of two acclaimed individual performers: Slovene theatre and film actor Boris Ostan, appears as the narrator in Zimmermann’s Musique pour les soupers du roi Ubu, while the outstanding young Israeli soprano Rinnat Moriah offers us performances of Zerbinetta’s aria from Strauss’s opera Ariadne auf Naxos and Ligeti’s Mysteries of the Macabre.
