A special focus of the second day of the Symposium will be on one of the most important interpreters of sevdah, Zaim Imamović, in whose memory a gathering entitled “100 years since the birth of Zaim Imamović” will be organized at 16.30.

Zaim Imamović, who spends his life and working life in Sarajevo, is one of the most important singers of the golden generation of Radio Sarajevo singers. His approach to singing sevdalinka arose from an in-depth knowledge of the singing tradition in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also an innovative upgrade brought to this musical genre by the new media of the time. During his life, Zaim Imamović recorded hundreds of important sevdalinkas for the archives of Radio Sarajevo, held thousands of concerts and sold several million discographic releases, while as a composer he entered the history of sevdalinka in golden letters with songs that are still performed today. Ethnomusicologist mr. Will speak about the role of one of the most important voices of traditional music in BiH and the region, whose singing influence is still felt today in the performances of new generations of sevdalians. Maja Baralić Materne, editor of the music program of BH Radio 1, literary historian Dr. Nirha Efendić, curator for oral poetry of the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, writer Lejla Kalamujić, author of the biography of Zaim Imamović, ethnomusicologist Dr. Tamara Karača Beljak, professor at the Music Academy, University of Sarajevo, and Damir Imamović, musician and family member of Zaim Imamović.
