FIRST END OF THE WORLD SURVIVORS MEETING

 
 
 
 

Acoustic performance
Gallus Hall, Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana
Recorded live on January 27 2014 by RTV Slovenia

In 2013, Silence and the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra decided to mark the first anniversary of the Concert for the End of the World by reprising the joint performance.

The reprise would become one of Silence's biggest and most elaborate performances to date. Attended by nearly 1400 survivors, the First End of the World Survivors Meeting featured 90 minutes of orchestral music, monumental visuals (generated live by Izland), a post-apocalyptic tap dancer (Mitja Popovski), and four deliciously gossipy rats with a soft spot for Samuel Beckett (Beton Ltd.).

Once again, Silence performed with pianist Igor Vićentić, conductor Tomislav Fačini, and the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra. Four additional songs (Vihar, vihar, Silver Bloom, Runalong, and Kraljestvo mačjih oči) were orchestrated for the occasion.

The concert was broadcast live by the Val 202 radio station. It was also filmed and broadcast by the Slovene National Television.
