Mourning for pathbreaking maestra
mainThe Serbian conductor Darinka Matić Marović died today aged 83.
As head of the Collegium Musicum-Belgrade/Serbia from 1971, she conducted more than 10,000 concerts – this, at a time when women were seldom allowed to raise a baton anywhere in the world.
She was also rector of the University of Arts in Belgrade and dean of the Faculty of Music.
