  Picture top: Festival participants.Picture above right: Slaviša Peric (left) and Mayor of Graz, Elke Kahr. For the seventh time Slaviša Peric organized the International Accordion Festival in Graz, Austria this month. It is the aim of the director of the festival to bring together artists, teachers, candidates from different countries for a peaceful competition with an extensive exchange of views every year. The positive development of the last few years proves his work right. Young talents are thereby discovered and promoted and the accordion is made better known to a broader public. Even the Mayor of Graz, Elke Kahr (pictured above), honored the festival with her presence. Participants from a total of six countries (Austria, Slovakia, Croatia, Hungary, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina) showed their impressive skills in 13 categories (classical accordion, accordion with chamber music and virtuoso light music). Dordje Peric (Bosnia and Herzegovina) showed his routine in international competitions and reached the maximum of 100 points. Also Peter Sokol, Sara Sokolova (both Slovakia), Marko Susac, Vladimir Stojanovic (both Bosnia and Herzegovina), the Croatian accordion quintet of the Porec School of Artists and the Austrian Marko Miletic were very close. The jury (pictured below) was made up of Herbert Scheibenreif (Austria), Ana Štepin Zagoranski (Croatia), Aleksandar Stojanovic (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Maria Budzakova (Slovakia) and Slaviša Peric (Bosnia and Herzegovina). |
