KALA presents artist Kathryn Claire and trio at 8pm on Friday, October 18 in support of her new release Eastern Bound For Glory. After a decade on the road and in studios as a side person supporting countless talented artists, the Portland, Oregon-based singer-songwriter returns home to give herself fully to her unique brand of alt-folk. Her latest album, “Eastern Bound For Glory”, is inspired by her life on the road, experiencing the emotional rollercoaster of being an interna- tionally touring musician. The masterful 10-song release signifies a home- coming to her solo career and back to her beloved city. Intriguingly, it’s an aesthetic departure from her previous work in that the record explores bold indie rock instrumentation and vibey spaghetti western atmospher- ics. The album will be preceded by the single “Eastern Bound For Glory.” Honest and poetic writing, crystalline vocals, impassioned violin com- Friday positions, and an ability to move seamlessly across genres, are the hall- mark of Kathryn Claire’s original and diverse sound. Utilizing the immense talent of her trio featuring Allen Hunter on bass, and Sid Ditson on violin, October Kathryn Claire delivers her own unique brand of harmonic alt-folk music. Doors open at 7:30.

    The Founder of the Ljubljana Festival is the City of Ljubljana The Patron of the 2019 Ljubljana Festival is the Mayor of the City of Ljubljana, Mr Zoran Janković. PRESS RELEASE Ljubljana, May 2019 LJUBLJANA FESTIVAL – CULTURAL HUB AT THE HEART OF YOUR SUMMER CULTURAL EXPERIENCE Every summer the Ljubljana Festival makes an important contribution to the cultural life of Ljubljana with a carefully selected programme covering a wide variety of genres. Today’s press conference in the Red Hall at Ljubljana Town Hall served to present this year’s 67th Ljubljana Festival, which will run from July until September. Once again the festival will feature ballet and opera performances, musicals, chamber and symphonic concerts, the International Fine Arts Colony, workshops for children and young people, the Ljubljana Festival on the Ljubljanica, and much more. Even before the official start of the festival, you will have the unique opportunity to hear Verdi’s Requiem conducted by the great Plácido Domingo, in his first appearance as a conductor in Slovenia. This pre-festival event will be followed at beginning of July by the most eagerly awaited cultural event of the year: the opening of the 67th Ljubljana Festival, which gets under way with Aida, one of the best known and most frequently performed operas not only of Verdi's oeuvre, but in the entire history of opera. Director Dražen Siriščević’s imaginative staging will make the most of the outdoor setting and the opera will include an appearance by thoroughbred Lipizzaner horses from the stud farm in Lipica. The events of the Ljubljana Festival take place throughout the summer and Slovenia’s capital will continue to welcome some of the biggest names in music – performers of worldwide renown – right up until September.

Winner of the prestigious Aviv Competition in 2007, Israeli musician Avi Avital is the first mandolinist in the history of the competition to be so honoured.

(29. 7. at 8.00pm, National Gallery) The Georgian Chamber Orchestra Ingolstadt was founded in Tbilisi (Georgia) in 1964. Its move to Ingolstadt (Germany) in early 1990 opened a new chapter in its story. Despite the move to a different cultural and geographical environment, it maintains its Eastern European identity, at the same time acting as an important cultural ambassador for the city of Ingolstadt. For its Ljubljana concert the orchestra will be conducted by the Armenian conductor Ruben Gazarian, who since 2015 has also been its artistic director. The soloists will be Fabrizio Meloni (clarinet), Vicente Campos (trumpet) and Giuseppe Albanese (piano). (30. 7. at 8.00pm, National Gallery) The concert evening Death and the Maiden places the spotlight on the vocal- instrumental works of two Romantic composers who are among the most notable composers of lieder: Hugo Wolf and Franz Schubert. Songs for female voice and strings and Death and the Maiden for soprano and strings have been arranged by the artistic director of the Slovene Philharmonic String Chamber Orchestra, Klemen Hvala. The fourteen-member ensemble was founded in 1993 with support from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia.
