Remembering Dežo
Festival of music and arts, dedicated to Dežo Ursiny, legendary Slovak musician, playwright, artist and resident of Dúbravka. The seventh edition (as always) takes place in the park on the Fedákova Street in Dúbravka, the artist’s domicile. The entry is free.
The programme starts at one in the afternoon and will be accompanied by music publicist Oliver Rehák. The concerts will be kicked off by pupils and teachers of the Eugen Suchoň Primary Art School. The students will be replaced on stage by the band NOVO, which, like the art school, is making its premiere at the festival.
The trio Peter Zajaček, Tibor Feledi and Marián Slávka will play as H30. Bratislava underground legend Hviezda, Prešov band Vojdi and the local band Noční jazdci will also perform at the festival. Ursiny’s legacy will be followed by Definitívum from Zvolen, Jakub Ursiny with his band Teatro Fatal and special guest Valér Mika will perform his father’s songs (as well as his own).
The world-famous guitarist, composer, producer and singer Andrej Šeban will reminisce about playing with Dežo Ursiny. The main star of the evening will be the most popular Bratislava band Para, which is also preparing a surprise related to Dežo.
The event will also include a visual art part. Young artists of Pri Kríži Primary School will be presented, during the summer students of the Jozef Vydra School of Art Industry were also inspired by the music and personality of Dežo Ursiny. A special exhibition of works and its opening was prepared by the clients of the Karol Matulay Social Services Centre.
