From our audiences
"WOW and just WOW!!! To the entire Svadba team of geniuses, what a MONUMENTAL accomplishment...I was in awe of the talent, the piece itself, and the insane amount of brainpower and dedication it had to take these ladies (and gentlemen, ahem, Adam) not only to make this happen, but to make it happen SO successfully... just in awe of it all, really... I somehow understood every emotional moment. That’s a huge accomplishment ...Thank you for such a dramatic, loving peace... It was a beautiful wave of sound through the entire evening...This opera was stunning & moving & understandable even though it was in Serbian....This was a real work of art. Beautiful, funny, heartfelt and so innovative. Wow!"
