Among the personalities of the Slovak avant-garde of the 1960s is Juraj Beneš, who significantly expanded and innovated the opera genre. Viktoria Poleva, born in Kyiv, is one of the leading personalities of contemporary Ukrainian composition. Critics rank her, along with Górecki, Tavener, Pärt and Godár, among the creators of “sacred minimalism”.
The Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra will be conducted by Marián Lejava, who understands the current repertoire well, as he is also a composer himself.
