“I am particularly delighted to return to Peristyle after eighteen years. It was my first artistic home, and the first orchestra and choir with whom I worked. That is why this return carries such profound personal meaning for me.” Maestro Repušić gave an interview to Slobodna Dalmacija ahead of the gala concert held on 20 July 2026 at the Peristyle as part of the 72nd Split Summer Festival.
Under his direction, the soloists Adela Zaharia, Tomislav Mužek, and George Petean performed alongside the Choir of the Croatian National Theatre in Split and the Croatian Radiotelevision Symphony Orchestra and Choir.
