The NOVA Philharmonic was founded on the initiative of the NOVA Music Society in 2010. The youth symphony orchestra consists of about eighty musicians from the Goriška and Friuli Venezia Giulia regions, secondary and university students attending Slovenian and Italian conservatories and academies, gifted primary school students and amateurs. The orchestra’s carefully selected concert programmes transcend the limitations of the genre and appeal to a broad spectrum of audiences, and its standard classical repertoire testifies to the musicians’ artistic prowess. The orchestra is setting new trends in the area of young musicians’ cultural creativity.

The Novo mesto Symphony Orchestra, the pride of the Novo mesto Music Conservatory, comprises more than ninety musicians. String, wing, brass and percussion teachers form a constituent part of the symphony orchestra. They set an example and offer guidance to the young musicians – both former and current music school students taking their first foray into orchestral playing. However, this does not mean that the orchestra is not open to contributions from other performers. For a number of years, the symphony has extended invitations to a long list of professional soloists, primarily vocalists from different countries and cultural backgrounds. Additionally, both talented students and Music Conservatory teachers are offered a chance to perform with the orchestra as soloists. Each school year, the Symphony Orchestra of the Marjan Kozina Music Conservatory from Novo mesto presents a concert repertoire featuring compositions by Slovenian and foreign composers. The symphony orchestra of the Music Conservatory serves as a complement to the school’s vocal-instrumental study programme and gives students an opportunity to gain practical experience in ensemble playing.

The Oberkrainer Quintett (Slovenian: Gorenjski kvintet) hails from the birthplace of the Avsenik Brothers, the village of Begunje na Gorenjskem. The ensemble started out on its music career in 1997 as a trio, eventually developed into a quintet and was subsequently joined by a male and female vocalist. Whilst primarily focused on the original Avsenik music, Oberkrainer Quintett has a broad repertoire of their own folk-pop compositions, which have captivated the audiences at various folk-pop music festivals and featured on numerous TV and radio shows. Over the past years the Oberkrainer Quintett has regularly appeared at the Avsenik Festival. While primarily performing to Slovenian audiences, the Quintett has a devoted international following, playing mostly in German-speaking countries where the ensemble is known under its German name, the Oberkrainer Quintett.

The Oberkrainer aus Begunje folk-pop ensemble (Slovenian: Veseli Begunjčani) was started in 2007. Before joining the ensemble, all musicians were members of different folk-pop groups and have extensive experience of playing professionally both at home and abroad. They all hail from the village of Begunje na Gorenjskem or its environs. Paying tribute to folk-pop music and the Avsenik Brothers Ensemble, the band takes its name from a happy ‘tune’ written by the Avseniks as far back as in 1954, titled “Veseli Begunjčani” (Merry People from Begunje). Members of the Oberkrainer aus Begunje swear by the authentic folk pop ‘quintet’ music, i.e. music pioneered by the Avsenik Ensemble.
