| "Since the early
90’s I have had a deep affection for Croatia and Croats. In the early
1990’s I worked during the war in Croatia and Bosnia and saw first hand
the terrible pain landmines cause. I am therefore delighted to support
the event on Sunday 29th May at Wigmore Hall featuring Jonathon Lemalu
and organised by the Croatian Students and Young Professional Network.
I very much hope the evening goes brilliantly and that it raises
significant funds to clear landmines in Croatia." |

We are pleased to announce that CSYPN
has arranged a Croatian Concert of the classical music at the
prestigious Wigmore Hall on Sunday 29 May. The concert is dedicated to
all Croatian heroes.
This is a charitable concert for the benefit of the Adopt-A-Minefield (UK) and it will undoubtedly be the Croatian cultural event of the year in London, and indeed world-wide.
The concert singers will be Jonathan Lemalu (bass-baritone) and
our Sandra Martinovic (mezzo-soprano), with Hein Boterberg on piano.
The programme will contain some of the most popular and most loved
operatic arias, as well as works by Croatian composers Jakov Gotovac
and Ivana
Lang.
Not only that the concert will be of a high standard with
excellent performers in one of the London's best concert halls. The
profit will be used to clear mines in our Croatia. So, reserve your
ticket as soon as possible, bring as many of your friends as possible.
This is an opportunity not to be missed.
Jonathan is already one of the greatest and most talented young
singers who won numerous prestigious awards around the World,
performing in the most esteemed concert halls around the World. Last
year he was pronounced 'the King of the PROMS'.
We are especially proud to provide an excellent
opportunity to Sandra, CSYPN's social/cultural secretary. Sandra
graduated at Royal College of Music in London and was a soloist with
the Croatian National Radio Chorus, touring through Europe. Time is
surely on her side.
