Kreativna Ura at Urania continues its collaboration with ZvUQ (Zagreb Unlimited Quintet) – a new chamber ensemble that approaches music as a space for dialogue between art, society, and the individual. Following the concerts Peace of Mind and Fantasy Tales, the ensemble continues to explore the relationship between acoustic and ethical space with a new program from the Important Dates by ZvUQ series. The third concert in the series, titled YOU and ONLY YOU, will take place on March 8, in celebration of International Women’s Day.
Zagreb Unlimited Quintet is composed of Ana Batinica (flute), Iva Ledenko (oboe), Eva Fritz (bassoon), Bogdan Bikicki (clarinet), and Petar Kšenek (horn) - musicians who hold solo positions in the Croatian National Theatre Orchestra and the Zagreb Philharmonic. Their collaboration emerged from a desire for deeper reflection on the role of musicians in society and the wish to bring chamber music closer to the everyday lives of audiences.
With this concert, ZvUQ celebrates the equality of women in society. The program will be moderated by the female members of the ensemble, and alongside the essential musical performance, the discussion will highlight women who have broken barriers in the world of music.
The evening will begin with a pre-concert conversation with the distinguished artist and professor Renata Penezić, who served as the solo flutist of the Zagreb Philharmonic for over three decades.
As in previous programs of the series, ZvUQ uses music to explore themes that extend beyond the concert hall – this time, marking International Women’s Day.
The collaboration between Urania – Space of Creation and ZvUQ as part of the Kreativna Ura series creates a shared space where architecture, sound, and thought converge – a place where art is not only performed, but also listened to.
This program is co-funded by the City of Zagreb.
