The band Ljubojna, which most
authentically conveys the pulse of the Macedonian traditional sound, has
not only founded its work on its descending to the “source” but deeply
immerses into what we call contemporary sound, the Macedonian music of
the 21st Century with all its passion and vigor! It is an elegant music
with rough rhythmic beat and intermingled music styles. The band has
impassionedly performed Macedonian music for eight years and has
announced it through the vocal expression of Vera Miloshevska. It is
believed that she is a successor of the renowned Vanja Lazarova and
Mirvet Belovska. The critics call her Vera the Nightingale. People say
she enchants with her spontaneity of a cafe singer. Two words brought
Ljubojna to life, “ljubov” (love) and “boj” (battle). Its music is tied
to the Macedonian life and founded on the Macedonian traditional music.
The idea of the band is to utter music as one universal language. A
great experience lies behind the musicians’ devotedness and an art
passed down from the masters of this music. Then the music itself,
European deep inside, though with fashions and influences from the East,
creates a mix of sweet and salty savours and elegance relieved by the
feelings that sway and bring you to joyful sorrow. Enlivened and shared
between both sides of Via Egnatia, the East and the West, Ljubojna sings
of the past and the present, of the unrepeatable, the genuine and the
forever modern beat.
