- **Event Description**: SONICA SPRING EDITION: ABUL MOGARD, RAPHAEL ROGINSKI &amp; IZTOK KOREN

8. April 2026 ob 20:00, Cankarjev dom, Klub Cankarjevega doma, Ljubljana (SI)

Festival Sonica, ki se letos iz aprila seli na november, predstavlja malo pomladno edicijo s premiernim koncertom slovensko-poljskega dua, dveh izbranih predstavnikov neofolk gibanja v svetu: multiinstrumentalista Iztoka Korena in slovitega kitarista Raphaela Roginskega, ki bosta izvedla koncertno premiero svojega prihajajočega albuma Nocturnal Consolations. Ob njiju se v Ljubljano vrača tudi kultni ustvarjalec ambientalne eksperimentalne elektronske glasbe Abul Mogard.
RAPHAEL ROGINSKI &amp; IZTOK KOREN (PL, SI)
Ideja za projekt in prvi zvoki skupnega ustvarjanja Iztoka Korena in Raphaela Rogińskega se je rodila v času, ko je Raphael sodeloval s skupino Širom, katere član je Koren, in sicer v projektu prirejanja kompozicij ameriškega skladatelja in posebneža Moondoga. Po nekaj letih čakanja in dela na drugih projektih sta se glasbenika lansko pomlad končno lotila dela na skupnem projektu. Koren in Roginski sta oba instrumentalista, ki iščeta starodavni glas svojih inštrumentov in hkrati tudi zvok jutrišnjega dne. Z občutljivo pozornostjo odkrivanja prostora za zvok, tako akustično kot ideološko, sta na skupnem projektu ustvarila polifonijo nenehno spreminjajočih se zvočnih barv. Sama polifonija, kot ideja srečanja drugega z drugim za izgradnjo platforme, je skupni imenovalec njunega sodelovanja. Kot navdušenca nad tradicionalno glasbo črpata navdih iz nje, vendar je bil njun cilj ustvariti glasbo za sodobnega človeka in univerzalno zvočno podlago. Tako je nastal album Nocturnal Consolations (Nočne tolažbe), ki obsega 11 avtorskih skladb.

ABUL MOGARD (IT)
Abul Mogard je alter ego italijanskega glasbenika Guida Zena, znanega po svojih sugestivnih albumih in imerzivnih nastopih v živo. Živi v Rimu in je nastopal na prestižnih festivalih in prizoriščih, med drugim na Berlin Atonal, Poesia en Voz Alta (Ciudad de México), Centre Pompidou (Pariz), Centro de Cultura Contemporánea Condeduque (Madrid), Auditorium San Fedele (Milano), Le Guess Who? (Utrecht) in Southbank Centre (London). Na naročilo festivala Organ Reframed je Mogard komponiral skladbo za orgle, elektroniko in pozavne, ki je bila izvedena v Union Chapel (London) z London Contemporary Orchestra. Njegovo delo se razteza tudi na področje filma, vključno s soundtracki za britanskega umetnika Duncana Whitleyja Kimberlin in Phoenix City (2021). BBC je večkrat predvajal njegovo glasbo, Mary Anne Hobbs pa je pohvalila njegove remikse za Carla Craiga in Fovea Hex (feat. Brian Eno) in jih uvrstila med svoje najljubše skladbe. Thom Yorke je Mogardovo glasbo vključil tudi v različne mikse za NTS Radio in BBC. Mogardova glasba je našla svoje mesto na različnih ustvarjalnih področjih, od filma in televizije do mode, sodobne umetnosti in oglaševanja. Njegovo delo je bilo predstavljeno v Ridley Scottovem trailerju za The Last Duel, Shane Meadowsovi TV seriji The Gallows Pole, modnih revijah za Ferragamo in kampanjah za Lancôme. Med njegovimi najnovejšimi izdajami sta Impossibly Distant, Impossibly Close z Rafaelom Antonom Irisarrijem in In uno spazio immenso z Grand River, poleg sodelovanj z umetniki, kot so KMRU, Colin Potter, CoH in Cindytalk. Mogardov novi album Quiet Pieces je izšel lani maja pri njegovi novoustanovljeni založbi Soft Echoes.

SONICA SPRING EDITION: ABUL MOGARD, RAPHAEL ROGINSKI &amp; IZTOK KOREN
8th April 2026, 8 pm, Cankarjev dom, Klub Cankarjevega doma, Ljubljana (SI)

Sonica Festival, which in 2026 will take place in November, returns with a special spring edition, featuring the live premiere of the new album Nocturnal Consolations by the Slovenian–Polish duo of multi-instrumentalist Iztok Koren and renowned guitarist Raphael Roginski, two distinguished representatives of the global neofolk movement. Joining them for this special evening is cult ambient and experimental electronic music artist Abul Mogard with his latest project, Quiet Pieces.

RAPHAEL ROGINSKI &amp; IZTOK KOREN (PL, SI)
The first shared sounds and the idea for further collaboration between Iztok Koren and Raphael Roginski emerged when Raphael was working with the band Širom, of which Koren is a member, on a project arranging compositions by the American composer and eccentric Moondog. After several years of waiting and working on other projects, the two musicians finally embarked on their joint project last spring. Koren and Roginski are instrumentalists who seek the ancient voice of their instruments while simultaneously exploring the sound of tomorrow. With a sensitive attention to discovering space for sound, both acoustically and ideologically, they have created a polyphony of constantly shifting sound colours in their collaboration. Polyphony itself, both as an idea of encounter and shared construction, is the common denominator of their work. As enthusiasts of traditional music, they draw inspiration from it, yet their aim is to create music for contemporary audiences and a universal sonic foundation. The result is the album Nocturnal Consolations, which features their first eleven original compositions.

ABUL MOGARD (IT)
Abul Mogard is the alter ego of Italian musician Guido Zen, known for his evocative albums and immersive live performances. Based in Rome, he has appeared at prestigious festivals and venues, including Berlin Atonal, Poesia en Voz Alta (Mexico City), the Centre Pompidou (Paris), Centro de Cultura Contemporánea Condeduque (Madrid), Auditorium San Fedele (Milan), Le Guess Who? (Utrecht), and the Southbank Centre (London). Commissioned by the Organ Reframed festival, Mogard composed a piece for pipe organ, electronics, and trombones, performed at Union Chapel (London) with the London Contemporary Orchestra. His work also extends to film, including soundtracks for British artist Duncan Whitley’s Kimberlin and Phoenix City (2021), the latter commissioned by the Coventry Biennial. The BBC has featured his music multiple times, with Mary Anne Hobbs praising his remixes for Carl Craig and Fovea Hex (feat. Brian Eno), listing them among her favourite tracks. Thom Yorke has also featured Mogard’s music in various mixes for NTS Radio and the BBC. Mogard’s music has found its place across a variety of creative fields, from film and television to fashion, contemporary art and advertisements. His work has been featured in Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel trailer, Shane Meadows’ TV series The Gallows Pole, runway shows for Ferragamo, and campaigns for Lancôme, among other projects. Recent releases include Impossibly Distant, Impossibly Close with Rafael Anton Irisarri and In uno spazio immenso with Grand River, alongside collaborations with artists such as KMRU, Colin Potter, CoH, and Cindytalk. Abul Mogard’s new album, Quiet Pieces, was released on his newly established imprint Soft Echoes in 2025.
