In cooperation with Druga godba 2021
During this year’s exploration of Southwest Europe, Festival Maribor crossed paths with their colleagues at the Druga Godba music festival along the way. The Druga Godba festival specializes in offering “other” or “different” music for local audiences and is considered one of the most interesting domestic festivals of good music, so of course we immediately agreed to cooperate. Together we will “unwind” and do something different!
The best brass bands of the Balkans have traditionally appeared at the Druga Godba festival, including Fejat Sejdić, Kočani and Boban Marković. If anyone can continue this winning lineup it is the Džambo Aguševi Orchestra from Strumica in North Macedonia. The Džambo Aguševi Orchestra was the winner of the trumpet festival in Kumanovo in 2006 and in 2011 they earned a gold medal
in Guča, the most famous trumpet festival in the world. Thanks to the success of their album Brasses for Masses released last year, they have conquered the rest of the world. Now there can be no doubt who owns the title of best brass band. A fresh approach, playfulness, perfect melodies and rhythms, musical knowledge and confident performances – these are the characteristics of all the best Roma brass ensembles. And yet few of them can share as much fiery sunshine and soul with their audience as the Džambo Aguševi Orchestra can. The event promises to be a brass band party!
