Location: Ethnographic Museum Split (Iza Vestibula 4)

Dates: April 11–12, 2026

“Ojkanje Lives!” – Experience the Voice of Tradition The Ethnographic Museum Split will host a unique workshop dedicated to ojkanje—one of the oldest forms of traditional Croatian vocal music.

The workshop will take place on Saturday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and on Sunday from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. The final presentation will be held on Sunday at 2:00 PM.

Through a combination of theory and practice, participants will:

• learn the vocal “shaking” technique
• listen to archival and contemporary recordings
• actively participate in singing
• explore the cultural and historical context of the Dinaric region

The workshop is open to everyone—regardless of musical experience!

Facilitators: Franka Kesić and Petra Crnčević

Ojkanje is not just a song—it is identity, community, and living heritage. Come and be part of its preservation!
