Sažetak

Contents of side events of the Varaždin Baroque Evenings have immensely contributed
to the development of the town of Varaždin in the last 45 years, proving the
richness of the town’s cultural heritage enticed, in this particular case, by the music
inheritance of this region and organisation of the baroque music festival.
The plentiful contents of the side events which take place during the ten-day festival
have also contributed to the successful organisation of the Baroque Evenings and become a traditional and unsurpassable peculiarity of the life in the town of Varaždin,
organized every year at the end of September and beginning of October for the last 45
years.
The Varaždin Baroque Evenings, including other side events, were developed
thanks to the centuries-long musical heritage and cultural values of the Varaždin region.
The side events include: exhibitions (more than 160), scientific conferences (23),
lectures, seminars (15), theatrical performances (26), representations and promotions
(30), gastronomy gatherings (21) and other happenings noted in the Table 1.
If one takes only a glance at the number of various contents connected to the festival
and its side programmes, one can easily conclude that it took a great effort and creativity
to organise the events involving numerous authors and other people necessary to
organise such an event. We are, for example, impressed by the number of exhibitions,
followed by conferences, theatrical performances etc. If we take into consideration that
all the happenings took place during the Baroque evenings in just ten to fifteen days,
and if we bear in mind that Varaždin had hosted similar, but also entirely different
events throughout the year, only then can we realise how rich in diversities of cultural,
scientific and educational contents Varaždin is. This is possible because Varaždin has
a critical mass of creative, capable, highly motivated, and also enthusiastic individuals
and groups of people who participated, not only because of their inner urge but also to
contribute to their town. We could only imagine the length of the list if we included all
the annual activities in the last 45 years!
Due to the above-mentioned facts, the Varaždin Baroque Evenings are a strong
proof that a local event, thanks to the greatness of its own centuries-long values, actually
has a universal feature. This is the reason why the Baroque Evenings, on the way to
their musical and creative procédé, simply “demanded” that also other creative forces
become active in other spheres of the town’s cultural and social life in order to show
themselves in their true light. To the Baroque Evenings we owe the gratitude for such a
wide range of moments of true creativity involving numerous participants of different
kind and age.
All the side contents in various art and culture spheres, numerous participants,
and many other towns and places involved in the festival confirm that the Baroque
Evenings created a special atmosphere in Varaždin proving to Europe it is, throughout
the year, the town of culture, baroque, music and flowers.
