The digital edition “Diptych and Argentine Fantasy” is a selection of cyclical works by Jovan Bogosavljević that have achieved a notable performing and critical life on the domestic and international stage in the past few years.
The composition “Diptych”, a two-movement concerto with a cadenza in the first movement for two solo violins, was premiered in 2021 as part of a project of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of North Macedonia, in collaboration with the Macedonian Chamber Orchestra “Profundis”, under the conductorship of Djurdjica Dašić. The work was then performed in 2022 with the Mostar Symphony Orchestra, as well as with the Concertante na Kolarac chamber orchestra, under the conductorship of Maestro Milena Injac.
“Argentine Fantasy” is a work that was composed for the festival program of the international Ohrid Summer Festival, where it was premiered in 2023, also under the conductorship of Maestro Milena Injac. Critics assessed this performance as a “refreshment of Ohrid Summer”. The work was then performed as part of the Skopje Summer 2023 festival, as well as in RTS programs the same year.
These cyclical works by Jovan Bogosavljević are today among the most performed works of contemporary domestic authors, both in the country and in the region.
Very demanding scores, enriched with contemporary performance elements, were performed by an exceptional generation of students who, in addition to the concert stage, gained valuable experience in professional string music making through working in studio conditions. Recording in a professional studio together with their professors and established musicians, these young performers adopted new skills and standards that represent an important step towards their artistic and professional maturation.
The promotion of the digital edition will be held at the Faculty of Arts in Niš Concert and Exhibition Hall, Knjaževacka 2a, on 27th December 2025 at 7 p.m.
