(National Radio Belgrade, Serbia)


In all three cadenzas Jovanović spread, by his magic flute, the most delicate feelings of his soul, when he sang the most tempting cantilenas, which literally dematerialized the tone texture and the entire sense transferred to an undefined spiritual state, into mutual trance, when all those present breathed in one breath and hearts beat as one heart...For such feeling, for such vigil, we can do no better but to bow again before the eternity of his art!
