The traditional gala concert presenting the rich heritage of Slovene popular music performed by a big revue orchestra is this year dedicated to the songs made famous by Ditka Haberl, Alenka Pinterič and Neca Falk, three wonderful singers from a generation that made history at the Slovene Song Festival (Slovenska popevka)  and who also share a birthplace – Maribor.
Accompanied by the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra, Big Band and Youth Choir under the musical direction of conductor Patrik Greblo, numerous guest singers will perform new versions of some of the biggest hits to which Ditka, Alenka and Neca lent their voices: Nad mestom se dani, Samo nasmeh je bolj grenak, Mlade oči, Vila z rimskega zidu, Kot nekdo, ki imel me je rad, Dan ljubezni, Sto majhnih nežnosti, Povabi srečo, Štajerska lady, Mini maxi, Krašovc, S kitaro in dolgimi lasmi, Prva ljubezen, Kako sva si različna, Dobro jutro, dober dan, Banane, Vsi ljudje hitijo and many more.
Another wonderful musical start to the summer awaits us, although we won’t know until the last minute who will have the honour of singing the song that traditionally closes the event – Poletna noč (Summer Night),  the legendary song by Elza Budau and Mojmir Sepe that was debuted exactly 60 years ago this year!

  • Ditka Haberl won the first prize of the international expert jury and the first audience prize at the 1976 Slovene Song Festival (Slovenska popevka)  for her performance of Samo nasmeh je bolj grenak
  • Ditka Haberl and the other members of Pepel and Kri represented Yugoslavia at the 1975 Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm with the song Dan ljubezni
  • Dan ljubezni  has been covered by numerous artists and has even been performed by London’s Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
  • Alenka Pinterič talks about her life and her musical career in her humorously titled autobiography The Beatles, Tito and I  (2006)
  • Alenka Pinterič took part in numerous regional festivals including the Slovene Song Festival, Vesela jesen, the Opatija Festival and Vaš šlager sezone
  • Neca Falk has released 11 albums over the course of her career, including Vsi ljudje hitijo  (1978) and Maček Muri in Muca Maca  (1984), her best-known releases
