On 21 and 22 June 2014 in Šentvid pri Stični, the 45th Gathering of Slovenian choirs was held with the participation of Mixed choir “Davorin Jenko” from Banja Luka as a representative from BiH. Choir Davorin Jenko from Banja Luka was one of 9 choirs from other countries which performed at a concert held on 21 June on the premises of the Elementary School Ferdo Vesel.
Choir Davorin Jenko performed 3 songs:
1. Radovan Gobec - VSE NAJLEPŠE ROŽICE, (folk song from Štajerska)
2. Fran Ferjančić/ Igor Švara – SIJAJ, SOLNČICE (Slovenian folk song)
3. Archibald Joyce/Aleksandar Jeremić – JESENJE LIŠĆE
Conducted by Aleksandar Jeremić, as one of jubilee participants of the choir with 10 years of conducting it, the choir performed a programme and it was warmly welcomed by the hosts.
Following the programme socialising continued late into the night along with songs and dancing.
On 22 June (Sunday), in Šentvid pri Stični there was a gathering of choirs (women, men and mixed choirs) coming from all over Slovenia, as well as of choirs from other countries.
Choir Davorin Jenko from Banja Luka joined choirs that formed a line and at around 12 o’clock they all walked to the stadium near the Elementary School Ferdo Vesel.
The entire trip and stay in Šentvid was done in good mood and socialising not only among ourselves but also with other participants to the gathering and the hosts.
