Little bird that so sweetly sings - Amazing Gimnazija Kranj Symphony Orchestra

Gimnazija Kranj Great Christmas Concert 2018 - The Last Journey Home.
Gimnazija Kranj Symphony Orchestra under the baton of maestro Nejc Bečan did again an amazing job. The Orchestra sold out the Gallus Hall in Cankarjev dom Slovenia in short seconds. This performance is a milestone. Primož Zevnik, the director, recorded it with 17 cameras. Gimnazija Kranj kids play amazingly. Just enjoy this powerful musical spectacle.

Marjan Kozina (4 June 1907 – 19 June 1966) was a Slovene composer. He is considered one of the most important Slovene composers of the 20th century. His best-known works include a symphony, composed in stages through the late 1940s; the opera Equinox, completed in 1943; two ballets from the early 1950s, and the music for the film On Own Land, which he later arranged into a suite for orchestra.

Little bird that so sweetly sings is a song, sung by Mojca, a blind girl, who longed for her village, where he was born. The song is a sort of metaphor for all those people, who are homesick, who miss their homeland and wide mountains.

The song is from the famous Slovenian movie Kekec. Kekec is a Slovenian fictional child character created by Josip Vandot in 1918 when it was first published in Kekec on the Hard Path (Kekec na hudi poti) at the Zvonček (year19#1/2) publication. Kekec is a 1951 Slovene/Yugoslavian adventures-youth film directed by Jože Gale. The film was based on the Kekec Above the Lonely Abyss (Kekec nad samotnim breznom), a mountain narrative by Josip Vandot, last of three stories about Kekec, which was published in Slovenian youth magazine Zvonček in 1924. The film was produced by Triglav Film and originally distributed by Vesna film, currently at Viba film. The story is set in a northwest part of Slovenian mountains, mainly in author's birthplace Kranjska Gora and the Julian Alps.
