Marko Markovic Marko Markovic was born on February 29 th,1988, in Surdulica. He grew up in his family s hometown Vladicin Han, in Southern Serbia. Marko s father, Boban, has been making music for more than 30 years. With such a strong musical example in the family, Marko s love for music strengthened, as did his admiration for his father, which inspired him to start practicing at the age of 5, even alone, dedicating all of his afternoons to his deepest passion: the trumpet. His very first teacher was his grandfather Dragutin, who was also his father s teacher. In the meantime, Boban kept touring with his Orchestra, playing all over the former Yugoslavia and Europe. Each time his father left, Marko was alone with his dreams of following him, and of becoming an official member of the Orchestra. He used to sit outside in the yard, playing alone and imagining the future. In May 2002 Marko fully joined fathers Orchestra and tour and since then has provided the band with most of the solos and has worked intensely on the group s new compositions. Marko s passion for the trumpet was never simply a child s past-time: he has been practicing 10 hours per day since he was 11 years old. Over the years, Boban has become more and more fascinated by Marko s technique and his passion for the music and for composition; so much so that he decided to give him full control of Orchestra, as a gift for his 18 th birthday. Some years later he became the main soloist and musical arranger in the band. In addition to his musical career, Marko has branched out into screen acting, playing the main character in the movie Gucha! The Distant Trumpet, directed by Dusan Milic and co-produced by Emir Kusturica, whose world Première was in February 2007 at the Berlin Film festival. In the movie, Marko plays the young Romeo, a Gypsy boy and trumpet player, in love with a Serbian girl, whose father is also a very famous trumpet player. Marko took part in the movie not only as an actor, but also as a musician, playing most of the songs on the soundtrack himself. The film hit all of the major European cinemas in the autumn of 200. The soundtrack of the movie received a nomination for European Film Award for best original music score. Marko currently continues to perform as the main soloist and arranger in the Orchestra, has intensely collaborated as a soloist and co-arranger with Shantel on the albums Disco Partizani and Planet Paprika, and has performed several shows with Shantel s Bucovina Orchestra. Since 2006, the Boban and Marko Markovic Orchestra has been collaborating with the well-known Italian trumpet player Roy Paci and the American trumpet player Frank London, as part of the Trumpet Triumph tour, renewed in 2009 with a new tour schedule. Moreover Marko took part to the recording to Miss Platnum s album The sweetest Hangover. Nowadays he keeps touring with his father and his band all around the world.
