Bea Palya’s series entitled “My Silks” has been running with great success since 2015. At these concerts, where she also performs with her excellent band, Palya always introduces a female vocalist less familiar to the Hungarian audience. The events focus on bridging musical worlds and the meeting of two voices, as the artists perform both their solo material and together in the form of duets. The tenth guest in the series is the Serbian artist Jelena Popržan, who accompanies her own singing with a five-string viola, using electronics and loops to create multi-layered soundscapes. Born in Vojvodina and now based in Vienna, Popržan gained recognition as part of the contemporary-avant-garde duo Catch-Pop String-Strong. Her debut solo album, released in 2020, blends chamber music, progressive folk and jazz with effortless ease. A vocal timbre that is at once expressive and unconventional will combine with the singer’s boundless energy for what promises to be an unforgettable evening.
