The Music Cinema project is designed to make a chamber ensemble,consisting of 7 to 10 musicians, perform live music and effects from the cartoons that are simultaneously broadcast on the projection screen on the stage. It is intended for children and dedicated to their music education. The idea of the project is to primarily introduce the youngest ones to classical music in a new and unusual way.
In the period from September to December 2022, the Music Cinema was seen by over 3000 people. It was rated as the most innovative project supported by the town of Kragujevac in 2022.
The programs performed as a part of the Ravanelius Festival belong to the first and second series of projections and are a set of transcribed works of classical music greats (J. Strauss the Younger, Jacques Offenbach, Davorin Jenko, Johannes Brahms, Pyotr Tchaikovskyand others) andnew music of composers Igor Andrić and Predrag Radisavljević. The Tekiart Agency was founded in Kragujevac in 2018 with a view to developing and affirming art in Serbia through the organization of different cultural events based on principled and defined strategies.
