Once again at SOMUS, the Slovenian Chamber Musical Theater from Ljubljana, the most eminent and very fruitful non-governmental theater specializing in modern operas in the region!

The opera "Svadba" is a chamber opera for six female voices "a capella" accompanied by percussion performed by the singers themselves. The action takes place the evening before the wedding of Milica, who is celebrating her last bachelorette night with her friends. The premiere was in 2011 in Toronto, after which it moved to the world's most prominent opera houses (Montreal, San Francisco, Boston), as well as European festivals (Aix in Provence, the contemporary music festival "Présence" in Paris, Nantes, etc.). So far, the opera has been performed in more than 50 cities around the world. The prestigious magazine "Le Monde" characterized the opera as a work that "reveals the universal phonetics of the human heart and evokes in miniature "The Rite of Spring". Ana Sokolović declared the performance of the Slovenian Chamber Musical Theater with conductor Jelena Sasnik as one of the best performances and interpretations of the opera. In Slovenia, this opera was sold out and greeted with standing ovations from the audience after each performance.

Ana Sokolović was included in the "Canadian Hall of Fame" as the most important Canadian Serbian woman.
