Petek, 15. aprila 2011/Friday, April 15th , 2011 ODPRTJE GALLUSOVEGA PORTRETA/ UNVEILING OF THE PORTRAIT OF JACOBUS HANDL - GALLUS Preddverje Unionske dvorane/Lobby of the Union Hall

Jacobus Handl - Gallus (1550–1591) je zaščitno znamenje slovenske zborovske glasbe: ob njegovih madrigalih in motetih se naši zbori šolajo, po njem so poimenovana tudi priznanja za dosežke v slovenskem zborovskem ustvarjanju. Njegova zbrana dela so natisnjena v 20 knjigah in posneta doma in v tujini, za njegovo oživljeno navzočnost na koncertnih odrih je od svojih začetkov pred polovico stoletja skrbelo nacionalno, od pozneje pa tudi mednarodno zborovsko tekmovanje v Mariboru. Obe priznani prireditvi potekata pod geslom Gallusove skladbe MUSICA NOSTER AMOR – GLASBA, NAŠA LJUBEZEN in Gallus je na odru dvorane Union zazvenel neštetokrat v izvedbi domačih in tujih zborov. Da gre za kraj, posvečen Gallusu, bo odslej pričal njegov portret v bronu, ki ga je ustvarila akademska kiparka Metka Kavčič Takač in ga bomo odkrili na začetku 11. Mednarodnega zborovskega tekmovanja Maribor 2011. Franci Pivec 33

Jacobus Handl – Gallus (1550-1591) is a trade mark of Slovene choral music. His motets and madrigals are indispensable in every choir’s repertoire and several awards for choral achievements in Slovenia are named after him. His collected works are published in 20 books and on several records. National and international choral competition Maribor is responsible for constant “Gallus” appearance of Gallus’ work on the concert stages. Both competitions appear under the motto of his Kiparka Metka Kavčič Takač je za najboljši zbor composition “Musica noster amor” – Music, our love Mednarodnega zborovskega tekmovanja and the music of Gallus sounded numerous times Maribor 2011 ustvarila tudi »Gallusa« po on the stage of Union hall.
