Ljubljana Special \u2013 Sa\u0161o Vollmaier at the MPS Studio<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Saturday, December 5, 2026 \u00b7 MPS Studio<\/strong><\/p>\n

He is the pianist for Laibach\u2014and at the same time an artist in his own right who continually explores the boundaries between contemporary music, improvisation, electronic music, and performance:<\/strong> Sa\u0161o Vollmaier <\/strong>Come to the second evening of our Ljubljana Special<\/strong> to the MPS Studio.<\/p>\n

As a pianist and composer, he is Vollmaier<\/strong> deeply rooted in Ljubljana\u2019s exceptionally diverse music scene. His musical work consistently bridges these worlds. Classical piano, contemporary music, improvisation, electronic music, and performance are not separate disciplines for him, but rather different forms of expression within his own musical language. Vollmaier is interested in the instrument\u2019s possibilities as well as its limitations\u2014and from this, he develops music that is precise, physical, radical, and surprisingly immediate.<\/p>\n

An important point of reference in his work is the Hungarian composer Gy\u00f6rgy Ligeti<\/strong>. With his program Vollmaier: Ligeti<\/em> In 2023, he was part of the prestigious Ligeti 100 Festivals in Budapest<\/strong>, where he performed at the Opus Jazz Club at the Budapest Music Center. In his exploration of Ligeti\u2019s work, Vollmaier combines classical piano repertoire with his own variations, electronic sound processing, and performative elements.<\/p>\n

His close ties to the Slovenian avant-garde are also evident in his project \u201eKind of Laibach\u201c<\/strong>. In it, Vollmaier transposes the monumental, industrial soundscape of the legendary Slovenian band onto the concert grand piano. The result is not a classical interpretation, but a radical translation: Laibach\u2019s sonic aesthetic is condensed into the possibilities of a single instrument. In addition, Vollmaier combines in his project Error<\/em><\/strong> combines the acoustic sound of the piano with electronic elements and explores new forms of musical dramaturgy.<\/p>\n

In 2026, the MPS Studio itself will become the production site for Vollmaier's new works:<\/strong> Right away In June 2026, the artist recorded two albums on the B\u00f6sendorfer Grand Imperial at the historic studio.<\/strong> The exceptional grand piano and the legendary acoustics of the MPS Studio are thus an integral part of these new productions.<\/p>\n

The collaboration between Vollmaier and MPS Studio has a long history. In 2025, he presented here \u00a0Kind of Laibach<\/em> and Error<\/em> on the historic B\u00f6sendorfer Imperial.<\/p>\n

These new works also mark the beginning of an international concert tour: In 2027, Vollmaier will go on tour across Europe with his new material.<\/strong> His performance at the MPS Studio is therefore a special opportunity to experience the artist at a crucial stage in his current artistic development\u2014up close, fully focused, and in the very place where some of this new music is being created.<\/p>\n

Sa\u0161o Vollmaier \u2013 bridging composition, improvisation, electronics, and radical sound exploration.<\/strong><\/p>\n
