With a nine piece brass section 'Bistra Reka - Clear River'
adds to the growing international reputation of Boban Markovic.
The top brass band in Serbia for the past 10 years, Markovic and his Orkestar has received a number of awards - 'Golden Trumpet', 'First Trumpet' and 'Best Orchestra' at the Dragacevski Sabor brass band competition held in
Serbia each year.
'Bistra Reka' shows the band at the height of its maturity with great tunes and arrangements such as Frank London's
'T.T.' or the traditional 'Bolujem Ja' and 'Grom Cocek'
'It’s like being injected intravenously with a life-giving drug. Markovic’s music might sound wild and improvised, but actually it’s meticulously worked out and
rehearsed.' Simon Broughton, SONGLINES
The Boban Markovic Orkestar, have previously been featured in movies by the
celebrated director Emil Kusturica.
