The second concert of the series, in cooperation with the SNG Maribor Symphony Orchestra, will be dedicated to one of the most prominent Slovenian musicologists, Primož Kuret, who founded the Slovenian Music Days together with Milan Stibil. Tactician of Simon Krečičwill give the first musical word to Mari Kogo, committed to expressionism, who also poured his search for the truths of human experience through the verbal ink of the pen. He wrote about music, which he perceived as distinctly internalized, "an art developed from its substance, placed inside a person". He also wrote reviews that honestly offended many of his colleagues. He resisted the ideology of his time, which, following the example of the Musical Mother, placed folk melody within a romantic idiom and used it to create a sense of nationality. Folk music inspired someone in a different direction. He wanted to highlight it in its original form, which he succeeded in, among other things, in the composition Three songs for voice and string orchestra, where Istrian motifs are also heard.
Nina Šenk, a representative of the younger generation of composers, brings internalized modernist contrasts that reach the dimensions of Schönberg's Angst to the concert. The anxious touch will be more intense from the dark string tones of the artistic musical movement of the composition Chant , which will experience its second performance as part of the Slovenian Music Days. The tribute to Primož Kuret will continue in the second part of the concert with the sharpened lyricism of the soliloquies of Gustav Mahler, a composer whom Kuret zealously researched for years and described in detail living and working in Ljubljana. In the contours of the lithe lyrical soprano Sabina Cvilak, we will hear Mahler's Rückert's movingly confessional songs,
of which Mahler said: “It is a feeling that rises to the lips, but does not pass over them!… This is my self!” Therefore, they represent his most intimate musical output, which he composed in the mountains, in a small cabin far away from the "world". That is why they are permeated with meditativeness, from which the melody from the Adagietto , the second movement of his Fifth Symphony, was born for the first time .

At 18:30 there will be a pre-concert discussion and presentation of the book Ljiljana Dubljević – Vojkić: Anita Meze (translated by Primož Kuret), moderated by Darja Koter.

Drugi koncert cikla se bo v sodelovanju s Simfoničnim orkestrom SNG Maribor posvetil enemu izmed najvidnejših slovenskih muzikologov Primožu Kuretu, ki je skupaj z Milanom Stibiljem ustanovil Slovenske glasbene dneve. Taktirka Simona Krečiča bo prvo glasbeno besedo podala ekspresionistično zavezanemu Mariju Kogoju, ki je svoja iskanja resnic človekovega doživljanja prelival tudi skozi besedno črnilo peresa. Pisal je namreč o glasbi, ki jo je dojemal izrazito ponotranjeno “iz svoje snovi razvite umetnosti, v notranjost človeka postavljene”. Pisal je tudi kritike, s katerimi je pošteno užalil marsikaterega od svojih kolegov. Upiral se je ideologiji svojega časa, ki je po vzoru Glasbene matice ljudsko melodiko postavljala znotraj romantičnega idioma in jo uporabljala za ustvarjanje občutka narodnosti. Kogoja pa je ljudska glasba navdihovala v drugo smer. Želel jo je izpostaviti v njeni prvinski obliki, kar mu je med drugim uspelo v skladbi Tri pesmi za glas in godalni orkester, kjer se oglaša tudi istrska motivika.
Ponotranjene modernistične kontrastnosti, ki dosegajo razsežnosti Schönbergove Angst, na koncert prinaša predstavnica mlajše skladateljske generacije Nina Šenk. Anksiozni pridih bo intenzivneje vel iz temačnih godalnih odtenkov umetelnega glasbenega stavka skladbe Chant, ki bo prav v sklopu Slovenskih glasbenih dnevov doživela svojo drugo izvedbo.
Poklon Primožu Kuretu se bo nadaljeval še v drugem delu koncerta z izostreno liričnostjo samospevov Gustava Mahlerja, skladatelja, ki ga je Kuret leta vneto raziskoval in podrobno opisoval bivajočega in delujočega v Ljubljani. V konturah gibkega liričnega soprana Sabine Cvilak bomo slišali ganljivo presunljivo izpovedne Mahlerjeve Rückertove pesmi, o katerih je Mahler dejal: “To je občutek, ki se dvigne do ustnic, a ne preide čez njih!… To je moj jaz!” Zato predstavljajo njegovo najintimnejšo glasbeno izdatnost, ki jo je komponiral v gorah, v majhni koči daleč stran od “sveta”. Zato jih prežema meditativnost, iz katere se je tudi prvič porodila melodija iz Adagietta, drugega stavka njegove Pete simfonije.

Ob 18.30 bo potekal predkoncertni pogovor in predstavitev knjige Ljiljane Dubljević – Vojkić: Anita Meze (prevod Primož Kuret), ki jo bo moderirala Darja Koter.
