Dear ETF BAFA members,

Radomirka Beba Zolotic asked me to advertise an event in Mountain View tonight. So if you live close, this is a great event. 

Please see the info below:

I am  very happy to announce a wonderful show that is coming to Mountain View on Thursday, May 29, 2025. 7pm!

Crittenden Middle School
1701 Rock St, Mountain View, CA 94043

“The Crittenden Middle School, 1701 Rock St, Mountain View, CA 94043 Tamburitzans” are an ensemble consisting of dancers, singers, and musicians who perform dances and songs from countries all around the world, mainly Eastern Europe. They preserve international cultural heritages through artistic performance. They are located in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania!

The Tamburitzans have different sets in their program every year. This year they are performing dances from Serbia, Croatia, Armenia, Slovakia, Poland, Mexico, and many more! 
All performers are full time college students at a Pittsburgh based college or University. Traveling on the weekends to share their talents, they then return to Pennslyvannia just in time for class Monday morning!

One of their performers (Nikolina)  is born and raised in Campbell California. She has been a member of The Tamburitzans for the last three years, while also studying at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She is very excited to be able to perform in her home town for the first time!

Tamburitzan ticket represents not just the Arts, but the academic dreams of future teachers, lawyers, nurses, and music and business professionals.

We would like to invite you to support this wonderful group of young students and enjoy an evening full of ethnic music and dance!

Here is a video about the group:

Dear Serbian/Montenegrin and other friends,

 

This is pianist Larry Vuckovich, being the first in the US as a Serbian/Montenegrin jazz musician/composer to introduce a new concept to American jazz: blending/fusing the music from our area with American jazz. My 1980 LP, Blue Balkan, is the first premier, landmark recording of this genre. Here are the sound links including reviews https://larryvuckovich.com/audio-blue_balkan_2002.htm .

 

I would appreciate if you can spread the word to everyone about my performance at Yoshi's – Jack London square Oakland on Thursday, June 12th, when I will perform some of this music with the great ensemble. Here is more info and hope to see you. This kind of music rarely happens and I would hope you would take the opportunity to stop by Yoshi's and hear this wonderful example.

 

Hvala Mnogo – Sve Najbolje, – all the best

 

Larry, Lazar Vuckovich
