RENAISSANCE GARDEN 2021 - Amaryllis
The Renaissance Garden project is based on a contemporary interpretation of cultural heritage. It is traditionally performed in the authentic ambience of the renovated Villa Bunić Kaboga from the 16th-century.
This year's new edition is symbolically entitled Amaryllis. It brings an unconventionally conceived program through intermedia performance; using live musical performances of the repertoire that covers a wide range from the Renaissance to the 21 st- century contemporary authors as well as archival materials that outline the protagonists of Dubrovnik salons of the past. Starting from the mythical, each performance of this project is an artistic intervention of reviving the spaces in which the rich cultural and social life once took place. The magical sceneries and legends of Dubrovnik summer villas and their gardens; the favourite gathering places of the former Dubrovnik aristocracy, become a common gathering place for locals and foreign guests.
The project is realized and performed by The Rest is Music NGO with the support of the Caboga Stiftung Foundation and the City of Dubrovnik.

Marija Lešaja, soprano
