This is the sixth occasion that the Liszt Academy has organized the Opera Exam Festival, when foreign institutes of higher music education come to Budapest to stage unconventional ‘opera exams’. The Academy of Music Ljubljana, which functions as part of Ljubljana University, were also present at the Opera Exam Festival in 2017. Its presentation then was extremely gripping, being comprised of newly composed 15-minute operas. We can reckon on a similar imaginative offering this time around with the staging of five contemporary mini-operas. All the composers study at the Academy of Music Ljubljana, as do the conductors. These short works have chamber orchestral accompaniment: students of composition have written their exam operas for a seven-person instrumental ensemble. Students of the Slovene Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television are also involved in the production and are responsible for the visual presentation of the evening.
