Nils Petter Molvær

Nils Petter Molvær will perform on 17 November at 8 p.m., while the Jovan Maljoković Octet and Robert Lakatoš Chamber Orchestra will perform at 9 p.m. as part of the Other? Europe music programme .

Nils Petter Molvær is one of the foremost performers of electroacoustic music, an improvised-composed hybrid that has grown into a genre in which he, as a trumpet player, is both a pioneer and a veteran.

The Jovan Maljoković octet, with two saxophones, two trumpets, piano, guitar, bass guitar and drums and a chamber orchestra with 16 strings, 2 flutes, 2 clarinets and 2 horns, will present a selection of the best of the best compositions by Jovan Maljoković (Višegrad, Put u Dečane, Svitanje) in new arrangements by Ivan Ilić for the expanded band and chamber orchestra. This great musical fusion represents a major production undertaking by the Novi Sad Jazz Festival.
