Music band Nouvelle Vague performs at very interesting location on 24th June at 21:00. Atrium of the Museum of Yugoslav History is the venue where the band from Paris will make a spectacle under the open sky. The world tour is on and the last album "I could be happy" charmed the audience and won over the harshest critics in short time. They consider themselves to be a strange combination that prefers Bossa Nova rhythm. The organizer of this concert is young production house "Muzicka Cool Tura".


Nouvelle Vague band was founded in 2003. So far, it has released five studio albums sold in over a million copies worldwide. Band founders, Olivier Libaux and Marc Collin found the inspiration for creating an authentic genre in punk, post-punk, new wave and post-new wave periods. Mixture of different styles enriched with Bossa Nova rhythm charmed the audience worldwide in short time. Talented musicians and producers covered great hit "Love Will Tear Us Apart" by Joy Division in a bossa nova version in 2002. It took them eight months to create the whole album. They called themselves Nouvelle Vague and that is how the music story began. The songs of famous brands like Depeche Mode, The Clash, Tuxedomoon, Public Image Ltd, Dead Kennedys, The Sisters of Mercy, The Cure and others are just a pert of the repertoire that will be presented to the audience in Belgrade.


A beautiful fountain adorns the Atrium of the Museum of Yugoslav History. There is a central stage in the center of that fountain, surrounded by nozzles, so any scenography at this location is excessive. The museum is surrounded by greenery of Dedinje forest, more precisely Hyde Park, that even more highlights the beauty of this place. Collaboration of the concert organizers and the Museum of Yugoslav History has the aim to attract people`s attention to true gem of the landscape architecture in Belgrade in order to remind of how it used to have such glamorous look. The concert is enlisted in official programme of the project of the Museum of Yugoslav History called "Summer in Belgrade". Diverse programmes with the aim to promote and re-popularize the museum will be organized within the project.

The concert organizer, "Muzicka Cool Tura" is a young production house that starts series of events of the same name dedicated to the audience with refined music taste. The organizer announces that its first project will be the most beautiful concert Nouvelle Vague had in Belgrade, and maybe the most beautiful on entire world tour.

Tickets are on sale at all box offices of Eventim.
