Readings & Talk 2024:
13.07.24: Srećko Jurišić
Srećko Jurišić is a profesor for Italian Literature at the University of Split and a writer. He is especially knowledgable for the history of Italian literature and its traces in the Dalmatian literature. His novel "Gajandra" is a satire, an epistolary novel, inspired by the the life of the physician, mathematician and writer Giulio Bajamonti (1744.1800). It's like a long, long monologue about life, troubles and joy in Split and Dubrovnik at that time. And the well researched story fills some of the lesser known gaps in literature, as well. It's an astonishing book from a contemporary writer whose own inner dialogue seems to be as vivid, imaginative and exuberant as Bajamonti's, while his language is in no way inferior to the protagonist's.
10.08.24: Tisja Kljaković Braić
Tisja Kljaković Braić was born in Split where she graduated The School of Art & Design, as well as the Academy of Fine Arts. She is a painter, illustrator and the author of satiric drawings. She had many exhibitions in Croatia and abroad. In Croatia she is well-known to a broad audience for her books "Them", "Them 2" and "The Devil got into the Little One" (which meanwhile became a theatre-play). She lives and works in Split.
16.08.24: Aleksandar Stanković
Aleksandar Stanković is a writer, poet and one of the most well-known tv-presenters in the Croatian television. He is famous for his courageous and explicit interviews with people from the fields of politics, science, and art. In his own books he also has a strong (self-) inquisitive note when turning his observations and insights into short texts and poems. His latest book "Depra" talks about depression, this very special "state of mind", a book in which he shares his own experience with his personal dark night of the soul.
24.08.24: Zdravko Zima
Zdravko Zima is a publicist, journalist, writer and cultural commentator and works as a consultant for the Croatian Ministry of Culture. Born on the island of Krk, he finished his studies of sociology and jugoslavic studies in Zagreb. He wrote for all the important Croatian newspapers, especially for the Novi List in Rijeka, but lectured and published international magazines, such as "Cicero", "Most/ die Brücke" and "Lettre Internationale". Zima published twenty books and he is an amazing and witty conversational partner for any philosophical, artistic or social question!
Music:
14.04.24 - 19.04.2024: Pure harmonica training (harmonica school berlin); workshop with Marko Jovanović
https://harmonica-school-berlin.com/workshop/pure-harmonica-training/
20.04.2024 - 27.04.2024: Listen - Practise - Play (harmonica school berlin &Jazzschule Berlin) workshop with Claus Rückbeil & Marko Jovanović
In this summer course, developed in collaboration with the Jazzschule Berlin, the harmonica meets different quiet acoustic instruments: violins, for example, or flutes, but brass players are also welcome, as long as they bring a mute. Participants learn to hear different scales and modes and to feel tensions between tones. Together they will practice different patterns and movements. The goal is to be able to improvise freely and fluidly with the tonal material. There are different technical levels for all scale exercises so that everyone can follow along at their own pace. The special attraction of this course: Because of the different instruments, small ensembles come together over the course of the week. These ensembles are a great chance to inspire each other … to listen, to practice and to play.

Guitarist Lutz Schlosser and harmonica virtuoso Marko Jovanović guide participants into the world of improvisation. What happens when two musicians come together in a musical dialogue?

21.09.24 - 28.09.2024: Playing the Blues (harmonica school berlin); workshop with Marko Jovanović & Stef Rosen
In this week-long special course, Berlin blues guitarist Stef Rosen and harmonica virtuoso Marko Jovanović will show you how to musically approach the blues repertoire. Every song tells a story and they’ll show you how to find your sound and give the song the right atmosphere. Participants will learn to adapt their playing, use accompanying rhythms effectively, and how to interact with other musicians while keeping the character of the song alive.
