at the Living Arts Centre was transformed into a little piece of Slovenia yesterday for a
20th anniversary celebration of the eastern European nation’s independence. During the
Slovenian Starlights Christmas Concert, a series of acclaimed performers paid tribute to
the struggles of their native land and its realization of independence two decades ago.
The Celebrity Symphony Orchestra, led by Maestro Dr. Andrzej Rozbicki, provided a
stirring backdrop to a variety of performers including singers Helena Blagne and tenor
Ziga Kasagic of the Slovenia National Opera. Dance champions Miha Vodicar and
Nadiya Bychkova showed off their classic ballroom style while the vocal group Plaman
and the Mladi Glas & Panika dance groups entertained the large crowd. Three time
