EVENT: Viva Musica Festival July 23-30, 2011
Viva Musica, the seventh year of the modern festival of classical music, is one of the highlights of the 2011 Bratislava summer. Its line up of attractive concerts in locations throughout Bratislava's centre promises the Russian opera megastar Dmitri Hvorostovsky and much more.
The festival kicks off on Saturday, July 23 in the Main Square with the Bohuslav Martinù Philharmonic of Zlín directed by Martin Leginus with a number of orchestral treats. Admission is free!
On Monday, July 25 a band led by prominent Slovak musician Oskar Rozsa, the Oskar Rozsa Partnership Unlimited will perform a fusion of modern jazz at the Stara Trznica (Old Market Hall) in SNP Square. The concert is now sold out.
Another concert with Free admission is scheduled for the Main Square for Friday, July 29. Dhafer Youssef, Tunisian lute-playing jazzman will perform from 8 pm with his new string orchestra project Abu Nawas Divine Shadows.
The final concert of Viva Musica in Eurovea, in front of the Sheraton Hotel, is an Opera Gala by Dmitri Hvorostovsky, the Russian baritone. It takes place on July 30 at 8:30 and seats are selling out fast.Viva Musica represents a break with the tradition of stuffiness and exclusivity in classical music presentations, offering the youthful and fashionable side of classical music. The festival is directed by young Slovak musician and manager Matej Drlicka.
The festival takes place in the Main Square, nearby Old Market Hall and Eurovea, the new shopping and entertainment complex near the Danube. Additional information and venue locations also at Bratislava Event Calendar and vivamusica.sk.
