About the ensemble:

Ensemble Projekt Lazarus operates since 2013 within the association of Croatian Music Center. The initiator and founder of the ensemble is Robert Palić. The research, revitalization, promotion, and presentation of Croatian musical heritage are primary objectives of ensemble Projekt Lazarus, which are being realized through two main processes: exploring yet undiscovered and unprocessed musical literature from 16 th to 18th century in cooperation with the experts for that period, and modeling professional ensemble necessary for the preparation and presentation of musical pieces. In addition, Projekt Lazarus focuses on the performance of the works that are rarely performed as well as those that have not yet been recorded. In the attempt to save from oblivion valuable monuments of Croatian musical heritage, the musicians of Projekt Lazarus have performed the works of outstanding Croatian early music composers – Ivan Lukačić, Vinko Jelić, and Ivan Šibenčanin, Damjan Nembri and others. The Projekt Lazarus Ensemble performed a significant number of concerts, including participation in the 12th Croatian Music Festival in Vienna in St. Peterskirche, then the Following the Steps of Damjan Nembri project, within which they performed at the VII Gaetano Callido International Festival in Venice, three consecutive performances at the Varaždin Baroque Evenings in 2017, 2018 and 2019, as well as three consecutive performances at the international Seviqc Festival in Brežice in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The ensemble also performed promoting the Croatian musical heritage of the 17th century in Rome, Bern, Munich and other cities in Croatia and Europe. The artistic leaders of the ensemble are the conductors Darijan Ivezić and Franjo Bilić, the artistic collaborator, pianist and producer Dr. sc. Martina Mičija Palić, and the external collaborator of the ensemble is the respected musicologist, Prof. Dr. Ennio Stipčević.
