At this year’s Summer Camp for Chamber Music, we brought together 35 students as well as 12 mentors and associates. The participants mostly came from various cities of Montenegro, but also from Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Germany, Switzerland and Japan, and thus the camp’s international tradition lived on, with even greater numbers and intensity, as all involved gained new experiences and knowledge, new ways of thinking about and understanding the beauty of musical communion. In addition to our students, distinguished mentors from home and abroad further contributed to the diverse program and exciting work atmosphere at the camp, transferring with passion their knowledge to young talents.

Anton Martynov, vertisale musician, violinist, conductor, composer based in Paris, has been contributing to development of the Montenegro Summer Camp for Chamber Music for several years as a mentor and conductor. Our conversation with him was published in the August edition of Gracija magazine under the heading „Spirit is the substance of the music“. Here is the entire interview.

It’s been three years already that you are working as a mentor for the Montenegro Summer Camp for Chamber Music, held every year since 2012, in Ivanova Korita. What is your experience with this project? What you bring back to this camp again?

It’s a wonderful initiative, I’m very glad to contribute to it and I congratulate Maja Popovic, the Ministry of Culture and all the supporters involved.
I am very glad to see the every-year growth of the young musicians of Montenegro and to work together with the leaders of the Montenegro Symphony Orchestra, with whom we prepare every year a new concert program. We already know and appreciate each other very much. It is a very important event for the cultural and human valors in the country and international connections. (more…)
