In this episode of The Treasure Hunt, Bas visits composer Vito Žuraj at his home in Slovenia. Together, they reflect on their ongoing collaborations and dive into Žuraj’s creative process - from experimental works involving chefs and theatrical soprano pieces to his upcoming violin concerto for Isabelle Faust.
Žuraj shares how ideas emerge through a balance of playful exploration and focused execution, inspired by John Cleese’s concept of “open” and “closed” modes of creativity. The conversation reveals how collaboration, experimentation, and personal experiences shape his music - ultimately leading to a deeply personal new concerto that explores themes of emotional release and authenticity.
