Take a look at IZZVEN - jazz festival Maribor 2006.

The festival's main focus are innovative, modern and provocative approaches of  musicians who exceed genre, age, geographical, cultural and race limitatons and stereotypes.

The Izzven festival acts beyond the problem of distinction between popular or serious music, composed  or improvised music, classically modern or avant-garde, high-, sub- and popular culture, beyond  aesthetical preferences and stylistic characteristics. It reaches out successfully especially (but not exclusively) to the middle aged and younger generations of public, that is to people that usually don't attend concerts with profound artistic content. At the same time the festival offers fun and the broadening of world views and musical horizons.

Tired of conventional commercial approaches, it wishes to surprise, award and enrapture with its singularity and freshness of the seen and the heard.
