THE FIRST ALBUM BY A SUCCESSFUL GUITARIST FROM TUZLA

Gramofon record label has released a first album by a young guitar player from Tuzla, Sanel Redžić. This very successful eighteen-year-old guitarist, with many musical acknowledgements yet to come, he has chosen for his first album a repertoire which best reflects his technique, musicality and great talent for interpretation. The album contains works by Johann Kaspar Mertz, Augustin Barrios Mangore, Vicente Asencio, Roland Dyens, and Carl Domeniconi.
Jazzthetik Magazine, a leading magazine in German-speaking countries, in its March edition has named Sanel ‘a guitar player with impressive skills’. Also, Miroslav Tadić, who wrote liner notes for the Sanel’s debut said: "This exceptionally talented guitar player shows musical maturity unusual for his age. The recording of the compositions is natural and unpretentious just like Sanel’s performance. We should remember his name. Judging by his first CD, Sanel is going to go a long way." The album released within Gramofon Classic edition was recorded in July 2006, produced by Edin Zubčević.
Sanel Redžić was born in 1988 in Tuzla. He has been playing guitar since he was eight. Sanel is in his final year of a specialized Music High School, studying under professor Predrag Stanković, who is also a co-producer of the album. Sanel has won many awards in national and international competitions; the last one is first place in an international competition for young guitar players under the age 35 held in Hungary in March.
