Sašo Avsenik Ensemble

Artist

When Sašo Avsenik and his Ensemble embarked on their musical career in 2009 a new chapter was opened in the music of the Avsenik Brothers. After a hiatus of almost twenty years brothers Slavko and Vilko Avsenik again joined forces to write new compositions and arrange several old ones for the Sašo Avsenik Ensemble. Annually, the ensemble gives up to 170 performances at home and abroad. Challenging the traditional belief that the home of folk-pop is primarily the Alpine Region, the ensemble popularised the genre by appearing in Croatia, The Netherlands and Belgium, and ventured across the Atlantic Ocean to Canada. The ensemble’s résumé includes cruise ship gigs.
