a little so you can breathe easier as it would be with the launch over next year when it starts all over again then i go and then they did 6 about a puppet. none of the musicians get paid to go to get show it's all about fighting and glory. and then you see. i think performing at the festival and coach as a good investment it's good for your career a lot of people can get to know and see what the solution would be to shoot. something simple you know could do. done young has brought in brillion force means to improve his chances. maria and right young a music students from novi sad. new to much of what joe was and then people are curious that there's a girl in the band some i wonder but i think it's good for abandoning. rihanna

is an exceptional chiva fly after he can't read music either in fact is almost behind the study i'm told you said that the docs nothing new since i can't see such as if i learn the score by heart then play for orchestras and also almost without any sheet music go up and it. depends diversity makes it unique. that i want. to look for all sort of you know other band in serbia is so inclusive some of us are black some of us are white. but the beauty is that we all fit together perfectly. with us as human. everything works brilliantly judicial and we've all made friends. it goes to show that it's possible. to overcome differences between nationalities.
10:43 pm
and the. good. and that is. that if it's. all the. the stage is set the pace of roasting on the spit and the fun can begin thursday is the 1st day of the festival when most serbs still have to work back tourists from all over the world starting to arrive. this is about how to plan for i don't know why so many french people visit 1st of all this is probably because it's free and it's cold. and so many visitors to the balkans the festival in culture is the highlight of their trip. and.
10:44 pm
wall street journal busy. there's a great trumpet scene in france that's why we hear so much about the festival. and it's completely unlike any other. look i think on our it all takes place in the streets you can be just standing around and trashing him an orchestra will appear around the corner and stop playing everybody dances saying you give them a bit of money it's spontaneous so lively a $50.00 volt. a celebration of music and cross cultural community after a town was on the road danielle's chain is exhausted. the bands taking part in the competition stay in the 2nd house. everyone knows everyone here of the musicians get a welcome there's not
10:45 pm
a lot of time if before the 1st performance. you know more of the feel like we're about to have a street parade in our regional costumes. it's a serbian tradition sure. to check on the city. and the parade in the afternoon the orchestras line up on the street every serbian region is represented in the competition. some international bands but he had to. leave the broadway it looks a little easier what exactly is it that at least. the mood is exuberant and so is the music it's a cough and the visitors love it but some of the musicians can barely hear themselves not that it matters.
10:46 pm
live. for us all in all it was great basically a warm up the real thing won't start until the evening churchills. only found a fan found a band from portugal still has the stamina for an impromptu performance like hold up and see if they're not being paid for appearing so these spontaneous street concerts at least a bit of cash. when
10:47 pm
evening comes crowds descend on the village. once the sun has set the sound of trumpets fills the air for the musicians it's both fun and hard work they've done more in one day you should than they usually do in a whole month but the best restaurant is off limits to street musicians the i know only allows well known bends to ply here that don't get tight but they do get beat tips. out there but. if an orchestra is going to play here at least 2 of won awards. they have to be balanced my case know their record they will compete to play here an orchestra cannot 502000 or even 5000 jurors today.
10:48 pm
i. believe. for now daniel is still on the outside looking in he's well aware that once a band has won the golden trumpet he can start to make good money on the postal service of the world. i was startled i've got nothing but praise for the orchestra playing in the restaurant someone over should know there were there was no bottle
10:49 pm
there but very good now. coming back and should not yet have a competition. it's time to midnight but the party will last until morning daniel and his band members have no problems showing their appreciation of the bands just talk. to some a boater most people live off tips so if someone gives you money you should be generous return. to the borders 1st it's an unwritten rule is a thought out there will use asians love to spend money on music 1 was a suburb of all of the but i know most of. them at 3 am the streets are still packed the news is euphoric.
10:50 pm

10:51 pm
a bestseller and groucho but lots of people just like the look of them. i. find. the so strange the british everyone including the russians. the people who like us by the souvenirs of all of those not likely some know their meaning and others just buy them as souvenirs. but these are our historical the national symbol which. i am on the visitors are ultra right nationalists katan patriots and party goers from around the world right wing and left wing activists hipsters and hippies it's the contradictions overlaid with the fanfare of trumpets that make the festival so joyous so exuberant and wild .
