Orchestra member since 2005

I take special pride in all these dear people around me, who support me and share every aspect of life with me, as well as in the fact that I have learned lessons from my defeats and used them as an incentive to pursue my goals.

I am an oboist, which means that I live in a viscious circle, somewhere between quantum physics, gymnastics and handicraft, holding a knife in my hand. Sometimes I myself wonder how I’m making it work. I don’t go to church on Sundays, but I go to the farmers’ market on Saturdays, the one in Zemun where I know the local greengrocers by name. I live to travel, enjoy music and find my peace of mind on the Danube riverbank.
