| March 22, 1950) is a musician from Bosnia and Herzegovina and one of the most recognizable modern composers of the Balkans.Balkans for over three decades.His father was an officer in the Yugoslav People's Army.His parents divorced and he remained living with his mother in Sarajevo.When he was sixteen, his mother left him and went to the coast, meaning that other than having a few relatives to rely on, he mostly had to take care of himself.He did that by playing folk music in a bar in Konjic, working on construction sites, and selling newspapers.Kodeksi, which Goran gladly accepted.At the end of the year, Goran's mother and Zoran's brother arrived to Naples and took the band back to Sarajevo.Then in the autumn of 1971 Goran entered university and decided to study philosophy and sociology.London, so Goran and Zoran started playing in a band, named Jutro (trans.The band in the next few years transformed a lot and on January 1, 1974 the band changed its name to Bijelo dugme ("White Button").The cult rock group Bijelo dugme (White Button) became one of the most popular groups of former Yugoslavia between the late 1970s and mid 1980s.At the time Bijelo dugme was falling apart, Goran entered the world of film music.His first project was Emir Kusturica's Time of the Gypsies (1989) which turned out a great success (both the film and the music from it).Queen Margot was again a great success, and the film won two awards on the 1994 Cannes Film Festival.Polish singer Kayah which sold over 650 000 copies in Poland (6 times platinum record).In 2005 he took part in 3 large farewell concerts of Bijelo dugme.Belgrade where most of his musical collaborators reside and Paris where his spouse lives with their three daughters.Goran's grand daughter Bianca.All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.Roots in the Balkans where he stems from, head in the 21st Century which he fully inhabits, Goran Bregovic's music marries sounds of a gypsy brass band with traditional Bulgarian polyphonies, those of an electric guitar and traditional percussion with a curious rock accent..It was the only way we could make our voice heard, and publicly express our discontent without risking jail (or just about)...Studies of philosophy and sociology would most certainly have landed him teacher of Marxist thought, had the gigantic success of his first record not decided otherwise.Goran plays youth idol in Eastern countries until he's sick and tired of it.MUSIC FOR MOVIES
Coming from the same background, the same generation, survivors of the same experiences, Goran BREGOVIC and Emir KUSTURICA formed a tandem which didn't need words to communicate.After "Times of the Gypsies" Goran had a free hand to compose the original soundtrack for "Arizona Dream".It's this imperfect, unorganised side that I wanted to preserve above all.Goran delivers a majestic piece with rock accents."Underground" has worn everyone out and Emir has to find a whole new team for his next film "White Cat Black Cat".Recently Goran composed spicy music with a "kletzmer" aroma for the "Train de Vie" of Radu MIHAELANU acclaimed by the critics in Venice, Sao Paulo, Berlin and by the public everywhere it was shown.In 2004 Bregovic repeats the same adventure: he composes music and plays the main role in an Italian film entitled "Giorni dell'Abandono" ("The days of Abandon") premiered in Autumn 2005.Then a collaboration with Teatro Stabile from Trieste for whom he wrote the stage music for a very unusual "Hamlet", and Goran Bregovic starts enjoying writing for the theatre.Follows a collaboration with one of the most "fashionnable" Italian directors, Marco BAILANI for whom, commissioned by the Festival NOVECENTO in Palermo, he writes the music for "The Children's Crusade" (created November 1999).MUSIC FOR CONCERTS
For over ten years, since he abandoned pure rock in 1985, the music of BREGOVIC had never been performed live.Very few concert performances in 1996 as the idea of a hundred and twenty performers on stage scared even the most enthusiastic promoters.In June 1997, the group is reduced to fifty musicians for a two hour concert with the music he composed for films.Iggy Pop, whom he totally reinvents (Arizona Dream 1993), Ofra Haza (La Reine Margot,1994), Cesaria Evora (Underground 1995), Scot WALKER in UK, Setzen Aksu in Turkey, George Dalaras in Greece, Kayah in Poland.Bulgaria, one from Rumania and another one from Serbia) and a group of Russian female voices.BREGOVIC and CSI topped it all and the party was repeated on June 29 at the prestigious NUOVO AUDITORIUM DI ROMA.In June 2002, Goran BREGOVIC united in the St.Denis Basilica (near Paris) three star singers from three religions with the Moscow orthodox choir, a string section from Tetouan in Morocco, and his Weddings and Funerals Orchestra, for a special project called "My Heart has become Tolerant" on the theme of reconciliation, commissioned by Festival of Sacred Music of St.Denis (that year entitled "From Bach to Bregovic").Luciano Berio invited the same project to his Accademia di Santa Cecilia in Rome in July, another concert on the Esplanade of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and the Festival of Sacred Arts in Fez.In 2004 Goran BREGOVIC composed his first opera entitled "Bregovic's Karmen with a Happy End", the first Carmen with a K and a Balkan accent."Karmen" was premiered in Italy on April 17 2004 and has since been performed over one hundred times.Written, composed and directed by Goran Bregovic (only a few quotes from Bizet's "Carmen"), this gypsy opera is interpreted by the musicians of his Wedding and Funeral Band.Switzerland in March 2004), as time was dedicated to "Goran Bregovic's Karmen with a Happy End".In the Fall three concerts in Belgium, then the Baltic countries, Vienna and the Chech Republic (plus one concert in Bratislava in Slovakia).In November Argentina again with three concerts in Buenos Aires and one in Cordoba, and then in December 2004 five concerts of "Karmen" at the Piccolo Teatro Festival Season in Milan, some more in Cagliari (Sardegna) and (yet another) short tour of Italy.Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Israel.Taipei, Singapore and Seoul in June 2005, then Summer Festivals in Italy, Spain, France.After Bremen in Germany, St.Moscow and a French tour in November, "Goran Bregovic's Karmen with a Happy End" played all December in Paris in "Le Cabaret Sauvage".Belgrade proved him right in the hope that people separated by wars could at least share and enjoy a common musical heritage.Avery Fisher Hall within the Lincoln Center Festival in New York.Montreal and Chicago were free concerts offered respectively by the Festival and the City of Chicago, and the 2.Poland after a long absence.Gypsy life full to the brim continues for this eclectic composer figure.This user has either cancelled their membership, or their account has been deleted.Mini Biography:
