Fundraising for new oboe
I am Tanja Malič
My name is Tanja Malič (born 1987), from Banja Luka,
Bosnia and Herzegovina and I am an oboe player. I am a
fourth year student in the Music Department at the Academy
of the Arts in Banja Luka, where I study Ethnomusicology
with Professor Dimitrija Golemoviča. In addition
I am a fourth year student at the Music School ’Vlado
Miloševič in Banja Luka, studying oboe with
Professor Veronika Antunovič. I have participated
in a number of competitions and achieved excellent results.
Playing oboe in Winds of Change
I am also a member of the wind ensemble ‘Winds of
Change from Sarajevo, a Musicians without Borders project.
Other musical groups in which I perform include the ‘Arion’
chamber orchestra in Banja Luka, the church choir the
‘Holy Mother’ in Laktaši and the Banja
Luka University Choir. For a long time I have been a member
of the Cultural Artistic Society ‘Slavko Mandič
in Laktaši, through which I have participated in
many festivals throughout Europe.

My dream: becoming Bosnia’s first professional
oboist!
Now that I have completed my studies at the secondary
music school I am faced with the problem of not having
a proper oboe. In our entire country, Bosnia and Herzegovina,
there is not one professional oboist, and I hope to become
the first! However, I am unable to buy a new oboe,
or a second hand oboe of good quality, in order to continue
further education at the Music Academy as well as to perform
in the orchestras, especially ‘Winds of Change’
and ‘Arion’. This problem complicates my participation
in different competitions, courses and seminars.
Your donation can make the difference
I would be grateful for your support in realizing my dream
of becoming a professional oboist! You can help me by
transferring your donation on account number 8114842 on
behalf of Musicians without Borders in Alkmaar, The Netherlands
stating ‘New oboe for Tanja’. Thank you so
much!
