They present a thematically rounded-up programme of repertoires primarily composed of works, originating from after 1950, and at the closure of the festival perform some joint musical pieces together. The concerts take place at different locations in Maribor and the neighbouring regions, but the prime venue is currently the [[Vetrinjski dvor|Vetrinje Mansion]]. The festival was launched in [[established::2007]] by [[Karmen Šilec]], the head and the artistic director of the [[Carmina Slovenica]] choir and production house. |
The festival is an extension of the various Carmina Slovenica projects that include different choirs, music publishing, (sung) theatre productions and a diverse set of educational activities. The latter are the main starting point of the ''Attaca'' creed, which is organising international collaborations of youth choirs and engaging them in contemporary compositions.
