Petar Marić is one of the youngest members of the Belgrade Tango Association and the orchestra leader of “Tango Juventud” youth orchestra. He is in the second grade “Dr Vojislav Vučković” Secondary Music School and studies the accordion with Professor Aleksandar Nikolić. At the Coupe Mondiale held in Norwegian town of Asker, near Oslo, he achieved a tremendous success by winning Junior Coupe Mondial. He was declared winner by a ten-member international jury amid tough competition and after two demanding rounds. He performed among candidates of up to 18 years of age which his makes success so much the greater as he has just turned 16.
The Coupe Mondiale is the most eminent international competition for accordionists which is traditionally held under the auspices of the Confédération International des Accordéonistes (CIA). We congratulate Petar on this tremendous success and we wish him a brilliant career.
