DEVET

“Devet” (meaning “Nine”) . The duo was founded as a project of two musicians from Eastern Europe – Lubomir Gospodinov (Bugarian)and Nikola Stanosevic ( Serbian), both with extensive experience in classical, chamber and other types of music. Their aim is to experiment and combine jazz modus with techniques from traditional folklore in search of a novel expressive language. Duo “Devet”’s unique interpretive style, made up of wide range of motifs blended in artful jazz performance, brings about inimitable atmosphere charged with the lightful energy of virtuoso saxophone and the playful dynamics of the lyrical piano.

In 1995 he entered High Music Shool in Kragujevac (instrumentalist-piano), matriculating in 1999 with excellent grades and very good results in different competitions.

In period between 2000 and 2004, during his studies at the Bruckner Konservatorium in Linz (Austria), making a great progress, Nikola started performing with different bands (jazz, pop, rock, classical music) and in various situations (concerts, theaters, musicals). 2010. he finished his Master`s studies at the Konservatorium Wien (Vienna) -Jazz Department and currently is active as a sideman in different formations.
