Dear EESTEC-ers,
Are you sick and tired of the
vuvuzele<http://www.facebook.com/#%21/pages/VUVUZELE-WORLD-CUP-SOUTH-AFRICA-MUTE/134…>
sound?
We Serbians (trumpet sound lovers) are as well! That's why we
are inviting you to join us at biggest jazz event in South Europe "Nisville
jazz festival <http://www.nisville.com/>".Together we will enjoy the REAL
trumpet sound accompanied with great atmosphere that only EESTEC exchange
can provide. Organized in the medieval
fortress<http://img704.imageshack.us/img704/1240/centar.jpg> and
visited by *100.000 people* last year, Nisville hosted some of
the biggest stars jazz produced (Candy Dulfer, Grace Kelly Band, Incognito).
This year is no exception though, Steve Hacket, Roy Hargrove, Da Phaz and 50
other bands on 5 different stages will jazz it up for us.
Normal price for this festival is about 50 € but as our guest you are
getting it for* free* :)
But we are not just going to listen, we are also going to try and make some
music. We will organize a short workshop about* sound production*. Don't
worry! You don't have to know anything about transistors or how to repair a
home stereo (although this would be nice cause mine is broken :). Beside a
faculty lectures we will also visit a small *studio*, a *radio station* and
have a session with a local *DJ*.
And of course don't forget our centuries old hedonist legacy! Are you brave
enough to try our traditional drink rakija? Don't worry if you have to much
of it, the best BBQ in the world including Pljeskavica will help your body
to process it. Since City of Nis has a lot of cultural heritage ( Scull
tower <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skull_Tower>,
Fortress<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ni%C5%A1_Fortress>
, Mediana <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediana>, Constantine the
Great<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constantine_the_Great>..)
we will try to show you as much as we can.We will also take you to some
breathtaking places like Devils
town<http://www.djavoljavaros.com/index.php?cmbJezik=2&> (new
seven world wonders candidate) and Niska
Banja<http://www.nistourism.org.rs/niska_banja_eng.html> spa
(A spa with radioactive healing water) and some swimming to cool it down a
bit.
So the crazy summer cocktail goes like this... Traditional Serbian drinks
and food, two cubes of great music,a bit of lectures, mix all that in a
summer temperature and share it with crazy orgaNICEers.
