The impression of the jury and all of us is that the level of playing of the students increases from year to year, that both children and colleagues are highly motivated to provide a high level of playing, not only at the technical level but also at the performance level. We are happy to see that such a large number of children love classical music and put a lot of effort and work into learning to play an instrument.
We owe special thanks to our colleague Katarina Farkas, who is the coordinator and organizer of the competition, and to our colleague Daniel Petreski, who joined her in the organizing team this year. There are also our students, volunteers who help us a lot every year: Maša, Djurdja and Sara.
Congratulations to all participants! Be proud of yourself and keep devoting time to art! We hope to see you next year!
Thank you for being part of our music story!
