There is hardly a better way to close a festival which has been all about crossing borders than with an orchestra that wipes them out entirely.
No Borders Orchestra consists of talented young musicians from all six of the former Yugoslav republics as well as from the “young” European countries of Eastern Europe, merging not only different geographical and cultural backgrounds but musical worlds as well.
The programme is also characterised by an exciting mix of cultures, featuring the clash of two seemingly incompatible music worlds: classical and electronic dance music, which together create an entirely new musical universe. With this goal in mind, the orchestra has commissioned new works by five young composers from the regions of the former Yugoslavia. All of these new, modern and experimental works were inspired by the clubbing scene of the famous Berlin club Berghain. The orchestra’s current tour also marks the thirtieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, which is symbolically dismantled again in the new pieces by the young composers: by interweaving their own musical language with modern techno, they transcend genres to create a new and fresh sound, boundlessly celebrating new paths and possibilities.
