Marko Hatlak is a Slovenian accordion player who has enjoyed a rich career, has been involved in numerous international projects, and whom we also know as a member of Terrafolk. The band FUNtango, the name of which he notes indicates “passionate and uncompromising” art, is made up of top musicians – two names from jazz stages are the leading jazz pianist in Slovenia Marko Črnčec and double bassist Luka Gaiser, while Hatlak and the violinist and concertmaster of the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra Benjamin Ziervogel have undergone classical training. The band will mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of one of the 20th century’s most famous musicians, the revolutionary Astor Piazzolla. His “new tango”, as he called it himself, is a mixture of classical and popular music, which exchanged dancefloors for concert venues and circled the globe. The composer’s vocal works will be sung by two famous solo singers of Slovene origin who this year received state awards from President Borut Pahor: world famous mezzo-soprano, recipient of two Grammys, Bernarda Fink Inzko and bass-baritnone Marcos Fink. The audience will also have the pleasure of seeing national Latin American dance champions Nika Bagon and Miha Vodičarin action. We will also hear the works of Marko Hatlak.

English

Marko Hatlak je slovenski harmonikar z bogato kariero in številnimi mednarodnimi projekti, ki nam je dobro poznan tudi kot član skupine Terrafolk. Zasedbo FUNtango, o kateri sam pravi, da njeno ime namiguje na »strastno in brezkompromisno« umetnost, sestavljajo vrhunski glasbeniki – iz jazzovskih odrov v njej ustvarjata vodilni jazz pianist v Sloveniji Marko Črnčec in kontrabasist Luka Gaiser ter ob Hatlaku s klasično izobrazbo še violinist, koncertni mojster RTV simfonikov Benjamin Ziervogel. Skupina bo zaokrožila 100. obletnico revolucionarja, enega najslavnejših glasbenikov 20. stoletja, Astorja Piazzolle. Njegov »novi tango«, kot ga je poimenoval sam, zmes klasične glasbe, je plesišča zamenjal za koncertna prizorišča in obkrožil svet. Pri izvedbi skladateljevih vokalnih del se jim bosta pridružila znana solopevca slovenskih korenin, ki jima je letos predsednik Borut Pahor podelil državni odlikovanji, svetovno znana mezzosopranistka, dobitnica dveh grammyjev Bernarda Fink Inzko in basbaritonist Marcos Fink, izvedbo pa bosta popestrila tudi državna prvaka v latinskoameriških plesih Nika Bagon in Miha Vodičar. Prav tako bomo slišali tudi avtorska dela Marka Hatlaka.
