It also follows the process of transformation and re- creation of the author's musical language: from classical, notation-oriented to a more intuitive, improvisational and live-performance based. Through detailing some of the experiences of the author as a composer and a performer, it also discusses some observations on the ways in which this discrepancy between two traditions and practices has affected and still influences those creative practices in Serbia and the former Yugoslavia that relate to traditional music and its derivations. By identifying musical performance within certain socio-cultural contexts this dichotomy can be highlighted. As a result, a substantial part of this text focuses on investigating the capacity of a technologically assisted composition and performance practice to overcome this issue. Technology is here perceived not only as an instrument for recording, improvising, composing and performing but also as a medium which communicates musical value. In this study, the oral tradition from the Balkans was approached not only as a purely acoustic phenomenon, but it also included a raised awareness of the nature of the continuous fusion of various cultures in the region, as well as existing cultural and religious antagonisms. This study investigates the problems of constructing musical identity as well as the meaning of an author’s creative practice in relation to the socio-cultural environment of its origin, whilst observing its reception by audiences outside the Balkan region. Socio-cultural environments are established through exploring the writings of the authors that depict the Balkans historical, cultural and musical spheres in relation to other cultural practices and influences. 5 Acknowledgments This dissertation is a result of research that spanned over the last five years. During that time, the importance of residing outside the Balkan region while researching and, later, writing has proved invaluable in discovering different viewpoints to my work and the region that has influenced it. Over this period of time I have greatly benefited from contacts with many persons, not only musicians and my supervisors, but people from all over the world who had shared with me their impressions of my performances and my music. Every musician that I talked to about the perception of Balkan traditional music had a little impact on this research, and my perception and ways of thinking has been challenged continuously, which has been the most beneficial to my approach to issues addressed here. Several people helped me and encouraged my work and made considerable intellectual contributions. At the very start of this research, the valuable criticisms, patience and understanding provided by Dr. Simon Waters, Dr. Nicholas Brown and Dr. Jonathan Impett significantly helped me to question and rethink my own approach to music. As for the Balkan history and the issues related to former Yugoslavian countries the invaluable support came from Dr. Cathie Carmichael, whose suggestions helped me to discover and question the inherited modes of thinking and opinions that I had brought to this research without being aware of. Few persons helped me to obtain sonic materials, which significantly influenced some of my music ideas and consequently the body of work submitted here. In particular Marija Vitas, ethnomusicologist and editor of the World Music Magazine in Serbia, who generously allowed me to use field recordings from her collection as a base for most of the compositions that constitute this research. I was also very fortunate to meet and interview storyteller and writer Jelena Čurčić, whose contemporary approach to practice of oral tradition greatly helped me to understand and formulate my own motivations as an author. 6 I would like to dedicate this work to people who are the reason for me being a musician before anything else: the audience.

  • Authenticity in Electronic Dance Music in Serbia at the Turn of the Centuries
    The Other by Itself: Authenticity in electronic dance music in Serbia at the turn of the centuries Inaugural dissertation submitted to attain the academic degree of Dr phil., to Department 07 – History and Cultural Studies at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz Irina Maksimović Belgrade Mainz 2016 Supervisor: Co-supervisor: Date of oral examination: May 10th 2017 Abstract Electronic dance music (shortly EDM) in Serbia was an authentic phenomenon of popular culture whose development went hand in hand with a socio-political situation in the country during the 1990s. After the disintegration of Yugoslavia in 1991 to the moment of the official end of communism in 2000, Serbia was experiencing turbulent situations. On one hand, it was one of the most difficult periods in contemporary history of the country. On the other – it was one of the most original. In that period, EDM officially made its entrance upon the stage of popular culture and began shaping the new scene. My explanation sheds light on the fact that a specific space and a particular time allow the authenticity of transposing a certain phenomenon from one context to another. Transposition of worldwide EDM culture in local environment in Serbia resulted in scene development during the 1990s, interesting DJ tracks and live performances. The other authenticity is the concept that led me to research. This concept is mostly inspired by the book “Death of the Image” by philosopher Milorad Belančić, who says that the image today is moved to the level of new screen and digital spaces. The other authenticity offers another interpretation of a work, or an event, while the criterion by which certain phenomena, based on pre-existing material can be noted is to be different, to stand out by their specificity in a new context.

  • Jewish Communities in the Political and Legal Systems of Post-Yugoslav Countries
    TRAMES, 2017, 21(71/66), 3, 251–271 JEWISH COMMUNITIES IN THE POLITICAL AND LEGAL SYSTEMS OF POST-YUGOSLAV COUNTRIES Boris Vukićević University of Montenegro Abstract. After the dissolution of Yugoslavia, the Jewish community within Yugoslavia was also split up, and now various Jewish communities exist in the seven post-Yugoslav countries. Although all of these communities are relatively small, their size, influence, and activity vary. The political and legal status of Jewish communities, normatively speaking, differs across the former Yugoslav republics. Sometimes Jews or Jewish communities are mentioned in constitutions, signed agreements with governments, or are recognized in laws that regulate religious communities. Despite normative differences, they share most of the same problems – a slow process of return of property, diminishing numbers due to emigra- tion and assimilation, and, although on a much lower scale than in many other countries, creeping anti-Semitism. They also share the same opportunities – a push for more minority rights as part of ‘Europeanization’ and the perception of Jewish communities as a link to influential investors and politicians from the Jewish diaspora and Israel. Keywords: Jewish communities, minority rights, post-communism, former Yugoslavia DOI: https://doi.org/10.3176/tr.2017.3.04 1. Introduction In 1948, the first postwar census in Yugoslavia counted 6,538 people of Jewish nationality, although many Jews identified as other nationalities (e.g. Croat, Serb) in the census while identifying religiously as Jewish, as seen by the fact that Jewish municipalities (or communities) across Yugoslavia had 11,934 members (Boeckh 2006:427). The number of Jews in Yugoslavia decreased in the following years after the foundation of the State of Israel.

  • Serbia in 2001 Under the Spotlight
    1 Human Rights in Transition – Serbia 2001 Introduction The situation of human rights in Serbia was largely influenced by the foregoing circumstances. Although the severe repression characteristic especially of the last two years of Milosevic’s rule was gone, there were no conditions in place for dealing with the problems accumulated during the previous decade. All the mechanisms necessary to ensure the exercise of human rights - from the judiciary to the police, remained unchanged. However, the major concern of citizens is the mere existential survival and personal security. Furthermore, the general atmosphere in the society was just as xenophobic and intolerant as before. The identity crisis of the Serb people and of all minorities living in Serbia continued. If anything, it deepened and the relationship between the state and its citizens became seriously jeopardized by the problem of Serbia’s undefined borders. The crisis was manifest with regard to certain minorities such as Vlachs who were believed to have been successfully assimilated. This false belief was partly due to the fact that neighbouring Romania had been in a far worse situation than Yugoslavia during the past fifty years. In considerably changed situation in Romania and Serbia Vlachs are now undergoing the process of self identification though still unclear whether they would choose to call themselves Vlachs or Romanians-Vlachs. Considering that the international factor has become the main generator of change in Serbia, the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia believes that an accurate picture of the situation in Serbia is absolutely necessary. It is essential to establish the differences between Belgrade and the rest of Serbia, taking into account its internal diversities.

  • The Folk Music of Bulgaria a Selective Bibliography and Discography Katharine Lambaria LIS 511: Bibliography December 20, 2013
    The Folk Music of Bulgaria A Selective Bibliography and Discography Katharine Lambaria LIS 511: Bibliography December 20, 2013 Abstract This bibliography is a selective representation of items relating to traditional Bulgarian music, or Bulgarian folk music, that are located at the Music & Performing Arts Library of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. It includes encyclopedia and dictionary entries, books, journal articles, and sound recordings in compact disc format. Text resources are arranged from general to specific, starting first with the encyclopedia entries followed by monographs and then journal articles. Compact discs are arranged alphabetically. In regards to the printed materials included, I have decided to arrange from general to specific because of the intent of this bibliography: to provide a guided reading list for or in place of a course on Bulgarian music. This bibliography is intended for University of Illinois students with an interest in Bulgarian musical culture. Items are in English and have an emphasis on traditional practices. There is more content within the library than what is presented here, including several more journal articles and a few more albums of Bulgarian wedding music. These items are not included because they are either not in English, repetitive, in a different format than CD or are outside the intended folk music scope of this bibliography. Materials spread a wide range of years as an attempt to give a thorough picture of how concepts changed over time. One may wish to consult previous editions of certain materials, such as the Grove Dictionary entry, to understand these changes. Bibliography Petrov, Stoyan, Magdalena Manolova, and Donna A.

The paper focuses on differentiation of editions released before and during the political, economic and cultural transitions in the ’90s. Last decades of the twentieth century also marked the technological transition from analog to digital recordings. Changes and continuities reflected in the editorial policy (as read from the released recordings) served as a marker of different transitions happening at that time. KEYWORDS: transition; Yugoslavia; cultural policy; music industry; PGP–RTB / PGP–RTS; recordings; classical music During the twentieth century, the development of music industry inevitably influenced modes of the reception of music.
