Agency Scholz & Friends has been nominated for “The City of Belgrade Award” in the category of “longlasting performance and contribution to the development of Belgrade” for the project “The Unheard song”, when, on the initiative of the Agency, the last piece by Stevan Mokranjac was discovered, completed and premiered performed.
This is the first time that an agency has received a nomination for this award.
The sole copy of the original composition, which Mokranjac began composing a few days before his death in 1914, remained lost in the archives for decades. On the back of the forgotten copy, dated from 1941, instructions were left for a future composer who would one day continue and finish the last piece of the famous composer.
The composition was finished and brought to life by one of our most famous composers of contemporary classical music, Aleksandra Vrebalov, who resides and works in New York City.
At the world premiere, held in Belgrade on Decembre 12th 2015 at The Kolarac Grand Concert Hall, the song that had waited 101 years to be heard, was performed for the first time in collaboration with The Choir of Radio Television of Serbia and maestro Bojan Suđić.
