About
Music Biennale Zagreb is an international festival of contemporary music founded in 1961. Dedicated to new music – including “living classics” of contemporary music and the new generation of international composers – programmes include projects by symphony orchestras and chamber ensembles, experimental musical theatre, contemporary dance, jazz, electronic and alternative music. Two principles guide the biennale: tolerance and high standards of musical production, creativity and reproduction.
