Priznanje iz Bijelog Polja

Ovih dana lijepo priznanje stiglo mi je iz Bijelog Polja. U tome crnogorskom gradu već nekoliko godina održava se veliki Internacionalni festival tamburaških orkestara. Ta je smotra, zahvaljujući osobnom angažmanu predsjednika Opštine Bijelo Polje Tarzana Miloševića i sjajnog producenta i urednika RTCG Miće Miranovića, postala jedna od najvećih, pa i najznačajnijih muzičkih manifestacija te vrste u Evropi. Uz moje izvjesno zalaganje, do sada su na Festivalu u Bijelom Polju nastupali i neki sastavi iz BiH kao što su Cazinski tamburaši, pa Tamburaški orkestar iz Zenice, Tuzlanski tamburaši, Orkestar Javnog RTV servisa BIH, kao i neki solisti poput Kadire Čano, Aldijane Tuzlak, Reufa Fekovića, Vesne Hadžić, Lejle Mešalić, Nedžada Salkovića i drugih. Ove godine, nažalost, nisam mogao otputovati u Bijelo Polje, ali me tamošnji entuzijasti nisu zaboravili. Dodijelili su mi specijalnu plaketu koju mi je naknadno, u krugu moje Bajke kod Sarajeva, uručio jedan od velikih sponzora Festivala u Bijelom Polju, poznati sarajevski biznismen, a Bijelopoljac po porijeklu, gospodin Hajrudin Hadžajlić. Baš su me obradovali i Bijelopoljci i Hajro. Hvala im od srca.
