RHYTHM OF REBELLION: WHO ARE YOU AND TO WHOSE DRUM DO YOU MARCH?

The author of the original music for the performance Death to Fascism: On the Ribars and Freedom is Dragoljub Đuričić, a musician, composer, music pedagogue, but above anything else an activist - the frontman of the drummers’ collective that was followed by thousands of people along the streets of Belgrade during the protests against Slobodan Milošević’s regime. Having set the rhythm to the general rebellion against the dictatorship, Đuričić is remembered as the man who led the revolution with his drum sticks. Today, apart from his constant presence on the music stage in the region, Đuričić facilitates drummer’s workshops for various groups, one of them being the actors of Reflektor Theatre. At Bitef Polyphony, you have an opportunity to acquire some basic drumming skills, but also to talk to this musician about his activism during those democratic changes.
