From Folklore to the Future
from An Englishman in the Balkans. Hosted by David Pejčinović-Bailey MBE
It seems that wherever I go in Bosnia and Herzegovina, traditional skills and cultural activities are slowly disappearing. From making instruments, to dancing and much more, the latest generations of young people, don't seem interested, and that could mean a massive impact on the heritage of not only this misunderstood country but also the wider region. I talk to Nemanja Knežević, to learn a little about the challenges he faces as the director of Banja Luka's biggest traditional dance ensemble. Check out the website of Ensemble Veselin Mašlese.
