Marta Borić Cvenić Osijek, 2019. SAŽETAK: Tema ovog završnog rada je važnost menadžmenta i marketinga u organizaciji glazbenih festivala. Zadnjih godina sve popularniji postaju razni festivali, a posebno glazbeni festivali. Organizacija ovakvog događaja dosta je komplicirana što će se vidjeli i kroz ovaj rad. Zadaća menadžmenta kod glazbenih festivala je da stvore kvalitetnu ideju, zaposle prave ljude, stvore realan plan za festival te kada ga provedu da ga znaju i održavati. Potrebno je znati kvalitetno nadzirati festival. Spomenuti će se i što se sve ubraja u marketing događanja, odnosno festivala. Kao primjer u radu obrađena su dva velika hrvatska glazbena festivala, INmusic festival i Ultra Europe koji se provodi u Splitu te jedan američki festival koji nije uspio, a to je Fyre festival. Ključne riječi: događaj, festival, marketing. menadžment SUMMARY: The theme of this final paper is the importance of management and marketing in the organization of music festivals.

  • Milko Kelemen: Life and Selected Works for Violoncello
    MILKO KELEMEN: LIFE AND SELECTED WORKS FOR VIOLONCELLO by JOSIP PETRAČ (Under the Direction of David Starkweather) ABSTRACT Milko Kelemen (b. 1924) is one of the most extraordinary Croatian composers of the post-World War II era. He has received numerous prestigious awards for his work, while his compositions are published by major companies, including Schott, Universal, Peters, and Hans Sikorski editions. His music is little studied or known internationally. This paper examines this innovative, avant-garde musician and sheds light both on Kelemen’s life and his compositional technique. The latter is examined in four compositions featuring cello as the main subject: Changeant (1968), Drammatico (1983), Requiem for Sarajevo (1994), and Musica Amorosa (2004). The examination of these compositions is placed in a biographical context which reveals how Kelemen’s keen political and cultural interests influenced his development as a composer. In particular, this document looks at Kelemen’s role as one of the founders, and the first president, of the Zagreb Music Biennale Festival, an event known for its ground-breaking work in bringing together artists and composers from the eastern and western blocs during the Cold War, as well as revitalising Croatia’s old-fashioned and provincial cultural scene. This festival of avant-garde music has been running since 1961. INDEX WORDS: Milko Kelemen, Zagreb Biennale, cello, avant-garde music, Changeant, Drammatico, Requiem for Sarajevo, Musica Amorosa MILKO KELEMEN:LIFE AND SELECTED WORKS FOR CELLO by JOSIP

Ovaj je diplomski rad izrađen u sklopu diplomskog sveučilišnog studija Geografija; smjer: istraživački (Baština i turizam) na Geografskom odsjeku Prirodoslovno-matematičkog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, pod vodstvom prof. dr. sc. Laure Šakaje. II TEMELJNA DOKUMENTACIJSKA KARTICA Sveučilište u Zagrebu Diplomski rad Prirodoslovno - matematički fakultet Geografski odsjek RAZVOJ PRISTUPAČNOG TURIZMA U GRADU ZAGREBU Robert Šulc Izvadak: Osobe s invaliditetom najveća su manjinska skupina turista u svijetu s potencijalom od preko milijardu ljudi, što je značajan potencijal za turizam svake zemlje. Iako osobe s invaliditetom imaju motivaciju i pravo na sudjelovanje u turističkim putovanjima, trebaju posebno prilagođene uvjete za ostvarenje sudjelovanja. Pristupačni turizam za osobe s invaliditetom još uvijek je nedovoljno istražena grana turizma, ali se, sukladno turističkim trendovima, sve više prepoznaje kao potencijal. U gradu Zagrebu turizam posljednjih 10 godina proživljava intenzivan razvoj vidljiv kroz proširenje turističke ponude, porast broja turista, povećanje broja smještajnih kapaciteta, marketing i dr. S obzirom na povoljan turističkogeografski položaj i turističku atraktivnost i veći broj receptivnih kapaciteta, grad Zagreb ima velik potencijal i za razvoj pristupačnog turizma pa je cilj ovog diplomskog rada utvrditi trenutačno stanje i mogućnosti razvoja prilagođenog turizma u gradu Zagrebu za slijepe i slabovidne osobe te osobe koje se kreću uz pomoć invalidskih kolica. Analizom pristupa lokalnim atrakcijama, smještajnim kapacitetima, javnom prijevozu i drugim turističkim uslugama prikazana je trenutna razina pristupačnosti u gradu Zagrebu. Također, navedeni su i inozemni primjeri dobre prakse te su dani prijedlozi poboljšanja za grad Zagreb.

INTRODUCTION The competitiveness of Istrian rural areas as a tourism product is not satisfactory, as demonstrated by the stagnation of agritourism – the backbone of rural tourism – and the closing of farms, which has been occurring in recent years. The situation is even worse in some parts of Croatia. Increasing the competitiveness of rural tourism requires enhacing the recognizability of the rural destination. The best means to achieve this objective is "upgrading" agritourism – the basic product of rural tourism – with additional content. The above considerations lead to the following question: Which content is adequate for this type of tourism? This paper aims to show that cultural and entertainment events can contribute significantly to enhancing the basic product of rural tourism by conferring "added value" upon the destination. Cultural, entertainment, sports and other events can thus become an important factor in the sustainable development of tourism, especially in the valorisation of cultural heritage through tourism, thereby increasing the opportunities for its conservation, preservation and promotion, and addressing both tourists and the local population.
