Prokofiev and Martinovic performed an exciting and demanding program in front of the numerous audience made from the compositions of Shuman, Shubert, Schnittke, and Shedrina. In the introductory speech, the school director Laura Jovanović reminded of the importance of such a practical improvement of school pupils, as well as the fact that most guest artists and professors from the local and regional art faculties held free workshops for pupils of the school.
