Orfeus and the Cultural Center of Belgrade collaborated on two days of marathon 1:1CONCERTS on 15-16 May 2021. Multikultivator, partner for the conference on Audience Development for classical music assisted in the stage of preparation with logistics and advertising.
There were 4 musicians, 12 guests and 4 venues. Besides me, Milica from Orfeus, there were three more hostesses: Ljubica from KCB and Bianka from Nova Iskra, who engaged at the venues and Marijana who assisted with bringing the guests from the “place of meeting” to the concert space.
