Recordings from the Midnight Concert 2008 (much more to come...):
Gvozden Rosic comes from the village of Rti,
about five kilometers from the town of Guca. He works as a
farmer and leads a brass orchestra that managed to win the
Golden Trumpet in 2001. Although they are not the tightest
nor most virtous ensemble, they surely did play some exciting
kolos at the festival in 2008.

Dejan Lazarevic is one of the younger trumpet
heavyweights, and despite his age he cannot be considered
a novice any longer. He has won numerous prizes during the
last six years, and his winning of both the Golden Trumpet
and the First Trumpet in 2008 confirms his status as one of
the toughest names in Serbian Brass Bizz.

Elvis Ajdinovic is one of the household names
in Serbian roma brass music. His trademark testosteronic vibrato
style is easily recognizable, and the coceks have a hardpumpin'
vibe to them. On the tracks below the group is joined by saxophone
mercenary Momcilo Krstic that fires off solos on Boril Oro
and Cocek III. The trumpet solos are, of course, by majstor
Elvis himself.
