RE: Music coming from the balconies!

Yes, Sombor, Vojvodina, Serbia. I lived there for a while but many years ago (I'd rather not say when). A very cultural place, as you noted. I was at one concert of so-called "Starogradske - Old Town Songs", they are like chansons of a sort. Oh, and I saw the greatest son of Vojvodina, the late Djordje Balasevic, in a live concert there. He was great.
It reminds me of a Croatian town, Varaždin, which is also very cultural and the biggest center of classical music in Croatia.

Otherwise, of course, we're always moving around concerts, but you know, more garage, punk, or jazzy style. 😎

Sort:  

Wow, you lived in Sombor (or in Vojvodina?) Anyway, what a coincidence! Seems that the world is small :D

Starogradske, yes it sounds very familiar to me, and of course, Djordje Balasevic, a true Pannonian sailor. Once I participated as a member of the choir in one of his concerts (but also, many years ago, that I would not say when either 😂 )

The style doesn't matter :) It is feeling what we get from live concerts!

I lived in Sombor for three months and in Novi Sad for two months. Been there to teach some people to set up the new production line and how to service the parts. Very nice people there, different than in central Serbia ... congrats, you participating in the Balasevic choir, he's true legend :)

Oh, great for Novi Sad too!
I lived there also, and that is where that concert with Balasevic happened. Actually, I went with his daughter to the same class in middle school :D But yeah, it was a long long time ago :D

So, looks like you have Balkan roots? Did you move before the war or because of?

I moved many years after the war. Well, just a bit more than a decade ago 🌞

Pa deset godina i nije tako puno 😎 !LUV
