Professor with a big heart
A life devoted to music, with Dragan also holding the esteemed position of a Full Professor at the Faculty of Music Arts in Belgrade, where he imparts his profound knowledge and passion for music to the next generation of artists. In addition to his extensive performing career, he plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of music through education.
Artistic Director of the School for Musical Talents in Ćuprija
2015-2021
This is a great place to add a tagline.
Since I was elected to the position of Artistic Director at the School for Musical Talents in Cuprija by my colleagues on the string department in 2015, my primary focus has been on concert activities and the professional development of teachers and students through masterclasses led by renowned educators from the Faculty of Music Arts in Belgrade, as well as other prominent soloists and musicians.
At that time, I believed, as I still do today, that the collective music-making and public performances of the school's students alongside top soloists at the most significant festivals and concerts in the country would lead to the highest musical achievements. My most significant activities at the school can be divided into several areas:
