About The Artist
Goran Bregović is one of the world’s most celebrated and influential composers, renowned for his vibrant fusion of Balkan folk traditions, rock music, and global orchestral sounds. Born in Sarajevo, Bregović first rose to prominence as the leader of the pioneering Yugoslav rock band Bijelo Dugme before becoming an internationally sought-after film composer, contributing acclaimed scores for directors such as Emir Kusturica (Time of the Gypsies, Arizona Dream, Underground).
With his Wedding and Funeral Band, Bregović has created a signature sound that marries Roma brass, traditional chants, choral arrangements, and contemporary instrumentation into music that feels both ancient and defiantly modern. His dynamic live performances and genre-blurring compositions have earned him a devoted global audience, solidifying his status as a singular voice in world music and a captivating ambassador of Balkan culture.
