Guitar duo Bulatović-Nikčević from
Montenegro will have its Carnegie Hall debut on October 18th,
presented by LeitmotivArts
Renowned
guitarists from Montenegro, Srjdan Bulatović and Darko Nikčević will have their
New York debut at world famous Carnegie Hall on 18 October 2016, in a concert
organized by LeitmotivArts. They will perform original compositions from their
new album "The Best of Montenegro", compositions inspired by
traditional Montenegrin music and recorded by Radio Montenegro.
The duo Bulatović -Nikčević has performed for both
national and international audiences for more than 25 years, presenting their
original pieces invoking the "languages" of classical and flamenco
guitar. While varied in terms of character, style, rhythm, and tempo, their
original compositions also, share a common thread of Montenegrin traditional
music, movie soundtracks, world music, and popular contemporary movements.
Having performed
for audiences throughout Europe and Montenegro where they enjoy immense
popularity, they are now eager to introduce Montenegrin music in the United
States.
"Our music
represents the unique blend of beauty of the Mediterranean, "broken"
Balkan rhythms and the mysticism of the Orient. We will introduce ourselves to
New York audience in the manner we know best which is by presenting Montenegro
and is musical tradition"- says Darko Nikčević.
Danijela Milić,
founder of LeitmotivArts's who has produced numerous cultural and music events
promoting artists from the Balkans in the United States adds:
"At last
the right opportunity to showcase musicians from Montenegro has presented
itself in the LeitmotivArts series of concerts I produce at Carnegie Hall.
Although I’ve been living abroad for a quarter century, in my heart I continue
to carry the sounds and scents of my homeland which are so richly reflected in
the music of these two talented duo."
The concert at
Carnegie Hall on October 18 is organized by LeitmotivArts with the support of
the Consulate General of Montenegro in New York and the Ministry of Culture of
Montenegro.
