Led by Slovenian pianist Manca Udovič, Romanca released their self-penned debut album, Počasi in previdno, in 2019. Comprising seasoned musicians, the band’s strong suit are jazz ballads and pop marches, as well as funky rhythms. The concert will open with Manca Udovič’s longer solo piano, and feature a young singer, Manca Fekonja, whose voice will add a unique flavour to the realistic-romantic melodies.

Počasi in previdno is an album of dualities, an album of differences, an organic whole that emerged from (individual) desire. At a time when it is more prudent (and more advantageous) to release singles, Manca Udovič and Romanca could likewise take the easy way, but instead took the classic way. The harder, yet finer way.
