Just like last year I went to the Sarajevo International Guitar Festival organized by Dani Sehu. It was all very nice and interesting. Here are some pictures.

Thomas and Predrag
These are Thomas Offerman and Predrag Stankovic. The picture is taken at the Sarajevo International Guitar Festival for which I was invited by Đani Šehu, the founder of the festival. Thomas is professor in Rostock and also teaches in Berlin, he wrote a dissertation about guitar technique and works as a director of guitar ensembles. He is giving masterclasses at the festival. Predrag is a sought after guitar teacher who works at the music school in Tuzla. His (former) students won over fifty international competitions. He is visiting the festival to see how the ones taking part in this competition are doing.
