Ritam Riot brings the vibrant musical traditions of the Balkans into a fresh contemporary context. With an infectious sense of rhythm, a spirit of improvisation, and imaginative arrangements, the ensemble creates performances that are both deeply rooted in tradition and unmistakably their own. Inspired by the diverse musical heritage of the Balkans, the group seamlessly blends traditional melodies and rhythms with influences from jazz and other contemporary musical styles. Rather than merely preserving the past, Ritam Riot reimagines it – transforming familiar tunes into vivid, energetic, and emotionally engaging musical experiences. Their performances celebrate the meeting of tradition and innovation, balancing virtuosic musicianship, expressive freedom, and irresistible dance energy.

For this special collaboration, Ritam Riot is joined by cimbalom virtuoso Lubomir Gaspar to explore the rich musical landscapes of Hungary and Romania. The program journeys from the exhilarating brilliance of the csárdás to the haunting lyricism of the doina, while also featuring original compositions by the performers. Together, they invite audiences into a world where centuries-old traditions meet fresh artistic expression.

 

The event will be followed by the Godalkanje Fiddle Jam session.

Free entry, voluntary contributions.

The event is organized by the ONE Music Society (Godalkanje section) and co-funded by the Municipality of Ljubljana.
