Tonight only - the embassy is welcoming a special native Slovenian musical group (in Washington D.C.. for tonight only).  Join Tina Silc, and Mak Grgic for an exciting, exclusive concert.
 
The concert Hues of Love brings together the love themes from a variety of world-famous 19th and 20th century Art Song composers, such as Franz Schubert, Hector Berlioz, Joaquin Rodrigo, Alberto Ginastera, Benjamin Britten and the Slovenian composers, who based their music on different literary sources: Goethe’s play Faust, Théophile Gautier’s narrative poem La Commedie de la Mort, the poetry of France Preseren and Franz Schober, or got inspired by the lyrics of the folk tunes.
Hues of Love explores different stages of Love and its possible emotional consequences. It can all start with a heart-warming serenade, yet, who knows how it may end… or just keep going.
