On 18th April 2009 Laibach, in collaboration with the RTV Slovenia Symphonic orchestra and composer Izidor Leitinger presented another spectacular event, this time called VOLKSWAGNER. Based on Richard Wagner’s music, the collaborating artists decided to create a sonic suite in three acts which takes Wagner into the core of the jazz music of sonic experimentalists such as Miles Davis and Sun Ra, further enhancing the music with ambient electronic and industrial sounds, making connections between Wagner, modernism, and jazz, crossbred with pop art. Two performances took place in Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana’s leading cultural centre, and, as is so often the case with Laibach, provoked some very strong reactions, especially among classical music critics and hardcore Wagner and Laibach fans.
