Kao naš najznačajniji interpretator i promoter savremene muzike, Nada Kolundžija je svojim istančanim ukusom sastavila zbirku koja „ozvučava“ burno stoleće muzike, u širokom luku od avangardne i eksperimentalne muzike, preko minimalizma i postminimalizma, do misticizma, filmske muzike i džeza (Arvo Pert, Luj Andrisen, Filip Glas, Skot Pender, Lola Perin, Dejvid Leng, Tobi Tvajning, Jakob ter Veldhajs, Galen H. Braun, Janis Kirjakidis, Vuk Kulenović, Vilijam Dakvort, Anton Batagov, Katarina Miljković, Ivana Stefanović, Miloš Raičković, Miroslav Savić, Dušan Bogdanović, Miodrag Lazarov Pashu, Meredit Моnk, Georgij Gurdžijev, Jasna Veličković, Konlon Nenkerou, Džon Kejdž i Erik Sati).
Knjiga sadrži iskaze kompozitora, koji su pisani posebno za ovu priliku, što Antologiju čini jedinstvenom u svetu muzičkih izdanja. Tu se nalaze i biografije kompozitora kao i eseji o pijanizmu Nade Kolundžije . Ovaj antologijski projekat sažima energiju njenog bogatog iskustva na polju istraživanja i izvođenja savremene muzike.
Promocije će se održati u Kragujevcu, Valjevu, Novom Sadu, Nišu, Kikindi i Subotici.

Nada Kolundzija is an internationally renowned concert pianist and Serbia’s most prominent performer and passionate promoter of contemporary music.

She won national and international awards and was nominates for awards for her recognition for her artistic achievements in contemporary music.
Kolundžija premiered a vast number of compositions by Serbian and foreign composers. For many years she introduced Belgrade audiences with the works of the 20th century “classics” and expanded her repertoire with works by Serbian composers, many of whom dedicated their works to her. Her soloist recitals are distinguished by imaginative programmes and highly praised interpretations.
Her concert appearances and recordings are sometimes marked by her performance of toy piano, prepared piano, music boxes, soundtracks, live electronics, two pianos tuned quarter tone apart. She has developed large and small performances around unusual multimedia concepts, and has collaborated with other leading artists.
In addition to her career as a solo performer, Ms. Kolundzija frequently performs with her brother, world-renowned violinist, Jovan Kolundzija. She was a long-term standing collaborator of the Toronto-based ensemble Les AMIS. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s she was a member of the Belgrade Ensemble for the Other New Music.
Simultaneously with her artistic career, she has taught at the Faculty of Music in Belgrade (1981–2015). She has inspired many young musicians to start performing contemporary music and for many years she has organized annual concerts with her students. She has been the Artistic director of Jovan Kolundžija’s Centre of Fine Arts “Guarnerius” since its inception in 2001.
Her enthusiasm for new music includes championing creative experiment in musical expression extending far beyond piano repertoire. In 2008, she initiated and organized the first “International Festival of Electronic Polymedia Art, Electroacoustic and Radiophonic Music” in Belgrade, ART OF SOUNDS, which presented more then forty works of composers from Europe, Australia, Canada, USA and Asia.
Ms. Kolundzija (Belgrade, b. 1952) has been playing and exploring contemporary music for more than four decades.
