The New Music is usually regarded as something extrinsic to a daily life. In fact its advances and discoveries are gradually absorbed by pop culture and become a part of the common experience. The whole pop and jazz music history, particularly the up-to-date dance scene with all of its offshoots, can prove it. We aim to implant current music trends into the appropriate context and draw attention to the cross-relationships which often remain concealed.
The basic New Music feature is its tending not to be pure "entertainment" - even in the styles of music presented in dance halls sparkle some moments which can shift its endeavor to a kind of more spiritual level. By dividing the festival program in three, due to acoustic ambient and other, different venues, we want to show their veiled unity - and the fact that spiritual experience can come from anywhere.
