After the town of Vela Luka announced a museum in honor of Oliver Dragojević, the legendary singer will be honored in neighboring Slovenia in yet another phenomenal way.
Oliver Dragojević, who left us too soon some three months ago, is a ‘one and only’ Croatian musical icon who has left an indelible mark on the region. Known to enjoy mixing in the company of fellow musicians, collaborating with them, and helping young artists on their way to success, Oliver’s passions, in a way, continue to live on.
To honor the legendary singer, Slovenia will present an unparalleled experience this month, bound to be one of the most beautiful music stories in recent times, reports Dalmacija Danas on November 6, 2018.
Oliver Dragojević will be honored by a famous list of Croatian entertainers
Oliver’s admirers in Slovenia will have the opportunity to enjoy the concert ‘The Best of Oliver in Dalmatian Song’, which will take place in seven cities this November. A concert tour which is destined to respect the singer and his celebrated career, will feature, above all, his friends and colleagues including Tereza Kesovija, Zorica Kondža, Jasna Zlokić, Tony Cetinski, Petar Grašo, Davor Radolfi, Tedi Spalato, klapa Cambi, klapa Bonaca, Jure Brkljača, and the Dupini group, which Oliver faithfully followed for twenty-five years at joint concerts. Due to the many performances, the performers will be exchanged on concerts during the tour.
One of Croatia’s youngers stars says that honoring Oliver Dragojević is a dream come true, and a great responsibility
Jure Brkljača found his place among the aforementioned musicians, who pointed out that something like this happens only once in a lifetime and is a dream come true.
“I’m happy to be part of the tour and I’m proud that at such a young age I am able to perform with these names. I feel a great responsibility, because I’m singing songs that have been marked by Oliver, and at the same time it means a lot to me because I love them very much.”
