Katalena means six people standing face to face with Slovene folk music, it means a week out of a summer in Bela Krajina, an attempt that could have failed but didn't.
Katalena is searching for an answer to a question that was never properly put. Our answer is our music. The songs that cast anchor somewhere between our consciousness and the consciousness of the people that are no more.
At the same time Katalena is an idea that wanted nowhere yet got somewhere, the experiences gained though not sought for. It is of these experiences our stories tell.
In summer 2002 Katalena recorded their first album entitled (Z)godbe – in Slovenian it is a game of words meaning something like: music tales. It contains 14 songs from very different musical environments of different regions of Slovenia.
