Music is in the air… This weekend we are celebrating festivities from all over the world and marking International Migrants Day on December 18. On Saturday night we will travel far through songs from Syria, Armenia and Croatia. On Sunday our Winter Bazaar will be open all day culminating in a performance by ZborXop at 17:00 at Živi Atelje DK. The Winter Bazaar will be both outside our front door on Ilica as part of Q’Art festival and in the warmth of our Gallery DK until 19:00. To celebrate solidarity and humanity for all, come join us.

“ZborXop is a mixed choir formed thirteen years ago under the auspices of the Zagreb branch of the Serbian Cultural Society “Prosvjeta”, but has always been open to everyone regardless of nationality. The choir performs traditional ethnic music from the area of southern Serbia and the wider Balkan area, presenting less (or more) known songs that were most often passed down “from generation to generation”, performed in communities, but in the new spirit of choral arrangements. In addition to preserving the musical aspect of intangible cultural heritage by bringing traditional music closer to the modern audience, ZborXop also performs anti-fascist folk songs, regularly performing at events such as Trnjanski kresovi and other anti-fascist and minority events.”
Many of the activities that lead up to the celebration of International Migrants Day were supported by the city of Zagreb (Zagreb, Otvoreni Grad) through the EU Connection project.
Glazba je u zraku… Ovog vikenda slavimo fešte iz cijelog svijeta i obilježavamo Međunarodni dan migranata 18. prosinca. U subotu navečer putovat ćemo daleko kroz pjesme iz Sirije, Armenije i Hrvatske. U nedjelju će naš bazar biti otvoren cijeli dan, a kulminira nastupom ZborXopa u 17:00 u Živom Ateljeu DK. Bazar će biti ispred naših ulaznih vrata na Ilici u sklopu Q’Art festivala, također i u toplini naše Galerije DK do 19 sati. Da proslavimo solidarnost i humanost za sve, pridružite nam se.
“ZborXop je mješoviti zbor formiran prije trinaest godina u okrilju zagrebačkog pododbora Srpskog kulturnog društva „Prosvjeta“, ali oduvijek otvoren svima bez obzira na nacionalnu pripadnost. Zbor izvodi tradicionalnu etno glazbu s područja južne Srbije i šireg područja Balkana, prezentujući manje (ili više) poznate pjesme koje su se najčešće prenosile „s koljena na koljeno“, izvođenjem u zajednicama, ali u novom ruhu zborskih aranžmana. Osim očuvanja muzičkog aspekta nematerijalne kulturne baštine kroz približavanje tradicionalne glazbe suvremenoj publici, ZborXop izvodi i antifašističke pjesme narodnog karaktera redovito nastupajući na manifestacijama poput Trnjanskih kresova i ostalih antifašističkih događanja i manjinskih okupljanja.”
Mnoge aktivnosti ususret obilježavanju Međunarodnog dana migranata podržao je i Grad Zagreb kroz projekt EU Connection (Zagreb, Otvoreni Grad).
