The Slovene Philharmonic String Chamber Orchestra Association

In 2010, the Festival Maribor was organizationally incorporated in the Slovene Philharmonic String Chamber Orchestra Association. 

The Slovene Philharmonic String Chamber Orchestra is an ensemble composed of fourteen musicians, who are also members of the Slovene Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra. The ensemble was founded in 1993 with the support of the Ministry of Culture of Slovenia. The aim of the ensemble was to perform on stages around the country too small for the larger Symphony Orchestra. 

In twenty years of its existence, the ensemble has performed in over 300 concerts in Slovenia and abroad with numerous renowned soloists. In recognition of its artistic quality, the ensemble received several awards, among them the Prešeren Fund Award in 1999, the Župančič Award in 2004 and the Betetto Charter in 2006.
