Dear Mr. Gluhović,

It is with particular pleasure that I extend my congratulations on the occasion of the first concert marking the “Day of Sevdalinka” in Mostar, an event that celebrates one of the most precious musical heritages of our region.

Sevdalinka, deeply rooted in the emotional and cultural heritage of our communities, carries within itself a special beauty, warmth and poetic power. Your efforts to present this tradition to new generations and preserve it through artistic expression deserve every praise.

Holding this concert in Mostar, a city with a rich history and strong cultural vibrations, further emphasizes the importance of preserving and promoting sevdalinka as an intangible cultural asset. We are convinced that the program will bring the audience unforgettable moments filled with emotion, superb interpretation and togetherness.

I wish you a successful performance, a full hall and much inspiration in your further work on nurturing our musical tradition.
