What to visit in Brežice 2023

This year’s 7th International Children’s Singing Festival in Brežice will host 55 young, talented singers aged 5 to 17, divided into three age groups. The expert jury had a very difficult task. From the 136 singers registered, at auditions in Slovenia, Croatia and online, the 55 best had to be selected. The selected singers come from Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Moldova, Slovakia and Malta.

The seventh year of the successful operation of the International Children’s Singing Festival “Brežice” is also closely monitored by the World Association of Performing Arts (WAPA – World Association of Performing Arts), which will also honor us this year with its guest appearance and participation in the expert jury of the final evening, as honorary members of the international jury:

Armando Gukasyan President WAPA (President of the World Association of Performing Arts – WAPA) and Evelina Batey President WAPA Europe (President of the World Association of Performing Arts – WAPA Europe)

The members of the expert jury in the final evening on August 27 are also: Jožica Zupančič (clarinet professor at the Brežice Music School), Alen Jelušić (Glazbeno Plesni Studio Ritam Klanjec, producer) and Dejan Stojanov (musician and singer from Macedonia). In the semi-final evenings of August 25th and 26th, the expert jury will consist of Jožica Zupančič, Alen Jelušić and Dubravka Jelušić.

We sincerely thank all the participants of the audition for the International Children’s Singing Festival Brežice 2023 for their cooperation, and the applicants for their trust. Of course, we could not accept all 136 applicants this year either, as we can place a maximum of 60 performers at the Brežice International Children’s Singing Festival, 30 for each semi-final evening. Applicants are asked to explain these numerical limitations to all their young talented singers who may not have been able to make it to our festival this year and kindly advise them to apply next year. It is also important to understand that those who did not have a backup song and entered with the same song as someone before them could not be considered for the audition. It is important that you submit your application every year as soon as possible and without fail with an additional, spare song.

We sincerely congratulate everyone who made it to our festival, and we would like to thank the others for submitting their applications and thereby showing their trust!
