Opera Soloists, Guest Soloists, Ballet Ensemble, Choir and Orchestra of the Slovenian National Theatre Opera and Ballet Ljubljana

The Symposium, which will be held within the Slovenian Music Days, is entitled as Music for (and) the Stage. It is therefore quite understandable that one of the major operatic works should be presented at the festival as well. This time it will be one of the Slovenian most popular operatic pieces Gorenjski slavček (The Nightingale of Gorenjsko). The Slovenian National Theatre Opera and Ballet Ljubljana has restaged the opera after seventeen years, therefore this warm, melodic and amiable opera will come to a fresh and new life under the direction of Vito Taufer.
