When combined, they reflect historic coexistence and osmosis of something that may at first glance seem as two different models of civilization.

REGATA - Rovinj’s regatta of traditional boats with lug and lateen sails organised by ‘Ecomuseum Batana’ - a community project of saguarding Rovinj’s ICH
10/06/2017 - 11/06/2017Rovinj
Contacto:
Ecomuseum Batana (Croacia)

Rovinj’s regata is one of the many activities carried out by the Batana Ecomuseum - a community project aimed at safeguarding local ICH inscribed in 2016 on the UNESCO Register of good safeguarding practices. Through its varied research programmes based on knowledge, respect for cultural heritage and dialogue, inclusion, innovation, its interdisciplinary approach and use of multimedia Batana evaluates, protects, interprets, recreates, presents and communicates maritime heritage and actively reinforces the cultural identity and uniqueness of Rovinj. Since 2005 the Eco-museum in cooperation with the local Sailing Club ‘Maestral’ organizes the Rovinj regatta of traditional lug and lateen sail boats. It was established with the aims:
1. to revive the lugsail (vìla al tièrso) which completely disappeared from use at the end of the 1960s when the small Tomos outboard motors were created. This motor was produced in nearby Koper and endangered the knowledge and skills of sailing with lugsails, as well as the techniques of their making (particularly their painting);
2. to stimulate intercultural cooperation on the Adriatic, as the lugsail is specific to the areas of Venice’s lagoons, as well as the northern part of the eastern Adriatic coast and which is being achieved primarily through cooperation with the Vela al Terzo Association of Venice which deals with preserving the tradition of lugsails;
3. to create events in Rovinj to celebrate maritime culture in a creative and colourful way, marked by the batana boat which can be enjoyed by all of Rovinj’s residents and visitors.
The Regata is held in june with over 30 traditional boats from the Upper Adriatic. Besides the Regata held on Sundays we organize a traditional dinner and music event Saturday evening as to celebrate another phenomenon of intangible culture we are bearers of- the bitinada singing. This year during the Regata we will also present the UNESCO Certificate handed to the local community by the Minister of culture. The event is organized under the auspices of the Croatian Ministry of culture and UNESCO office in Croatia.

Ksenija Matić, President

Festival Aklapela was founded in 2012 - it is a festival of the best Croatian klapas that nourish the authentic klapa singing, a festival named by a pun of the words “klapa” and “a cappella”.
The songs are performed without instrumental accompaniment, and with little or no help of amplifiers, in the same way, or a way similar to the authentic one of performing Croatian traditional klapa song.
The traditional klapa song did not evolve in concerts and for concerts, but concert performances are one of the ways to share the entire beauty of klapa singing with as many admirers as possible.
Unlike other numerous established music festivals that are successfully held in Dubrovnik, Aklapela is an entirely national musical product and, with visionary artistic leadership, has the potential to become a referent value of Croatian ethno-music.
