“Music gives Soul to the Universe, Wings to the Mind, Flight to the Imagination and Charm and Gaiety to Life”
»Sanja wanted all or nothing«… said Serbian writer Momo Kapor in one of his books. Being an artist gave me one of the most valuable things – feeling of freedom. To get to know myself deeply, to be true to myself and freedom to choose my own HOW. Constant learning, action and creation reflect need of individuality and expression of myself through music.
And that is where My Story begins- beautiful miracle of Life…
While the classical education taught me what should be the way of my musical path, all the obstacles that I encountered on that way taught me what I can make out of my life. What is truth for me. And being true to myself helped me being true to the others. There I got to choose the Way, my own terms of life. My own HOW, which finally defined me as a person I want to be.
Stairway in front of our house where I used to perform for my family, became the world stage on which I am stepping and performing now as an oboe soloist. Room where I was teaching my imaginary students became my own teaching concept for musicians, my way of helping them make their musical path less roundabout than mine was – Playing with Ease. Because ease derives from purpose. Dreamer that I still am, create projects derived from my life experience – with aim to inspire the World with meaning of Arts and Music and the way it nourishes our souls.
It is much more than just playing or position I am entitled to. It is »all or nothing«, an endless space within, a big breath of fresh air, easiness of movement while embracing dance of Life and possibility to express myself and music that comes from within. Using everything I know, becoming better person and inspiring others for the better World we are all living in…
Welcome to my Music Story…
