“It is a great honor to perform at this prestigious festival in your country and among the world's top names. It is a great joy to sing in front of our audience. I did a solo concert a year ago in the Church of the Holy Spirit, and I enjoyed the wonderful acoustics and sharing emotions with the audience. There are beautiful memories on this stage because I won the Golden Lira at the 15th anniversary of the solo singing competition. Now I will perform with the renowned co-repetitor Đorđe Nešić, who lives and works in New York for 35 years. We will try to create a unique experience for the audience and do our best to let the audience enjoy it. Thank you very much for your invitation, and I wish you a successful festival," said Tamara Rađenović, a 20-year-old artist from Podgorica, who graduated last year at the London Royal College of Music.
