Chat with Ensemble Tacet (SI)

Artists’ message to visitors: The name of our ensemble, tacet, comes from the Latin word for ‘is silent’. For trio, chamber music, and music in general, starts when we first listen and only then play. To truly listen one has to be silent, inside and out. The same goes for the audience. In our concerts, we want to create an environment, where the person listening to us, can come to the silent state and lose themselves in the music.

The mission statement of the ensemble: Our goal is to bring the richness of early music to the Slovenian public, especially to new generations. As Slovenians we also want to explore music that was written on Slovenian ground and put it into the context of the music of surrounding territories. Our wish is to explore the variety of sounds, instrumentations, and arrangements possible in the historical performance context; all connected with artistic, original, and ‘intentional’ visual presentation. Our focus is also on creating programs that are instructive and entertaining for us and the audience.
