Incomparable Pogradec opens the tourist season
Even this tourist season, Pogradec remains a sought-after ...

A recital concert has rarely caught the art-loving citizens of Korça in the "Andon Zako Çajupi" theater. The artist Tomi Kondakçi unfolded with his special voice the Korça serenades, part of which he sang with the guitar, the instrument so dear to him.
The enthusiasm of this recital was best shown by the full hall, where the audience sang in unison with Tomi Kondakçi.

The latter shows the many emotions and, among other things, the work it took the instrumentalists and students, who became part of a group to bring a beautiful work, which seems to have succeeded.
"The time to prepare the concert was very short. To think that in two weeks the whole concert was put together is a big deal. The credit goes to all these boys and girls of the band's music school, who have not spared me a single second. They are disconnected from their jobs or studies. Singing with a guitar, as we korcars usually sing, always leaves you in a straight line, while with a band behind, what you have, you have dreamed of achieving, you achieve. A guitar always remains on the edge of that light serenade, the rhythm does not support you, while now I felt fulfilled", he said.

Two well-known and well-loved artists, Ardian Trebicka and Bledi Polena, were also invited as part of the recital.
According to Trebicka, he feels honored to be invited to this concert, saying that Tomi Kondakçi is one of those characters who rarely come to Korça, an artist with great values ??who has given life to the serenade, calling this concert " The concert of Tom's life".

"It was a night of a man who has contributed with his soul in terms of the Korça serenade. Tomi Kondakçi is one of those characters who rarely come to Korcca. He is one of those characters who lives and sings in this city. Korça best expresses gratitude for art and today it appeared in this hall that was full. I personally got a rare thrill because I felt very honored and would call it the concert of Tom's life. I hope that the Korça serenade will continue in these footsteps", declared Trebicka.
Bledi Polena had a special gift from Kondakçi, who gave her a song that she had the pleasure of sharing with the public.

"The evening was fantastic. Tom was great. I thanked him very much for such a special gift. The audience spoke for itself, the whole evening was a spell. What else can you say? Tomi, you are the best", said Polena.
Tomi Kondakçi is one of those persecuted artists, who was sentenced to prison by the communist regime. In search of freedom to realize his dream in music, Tomi Kondakçi attempted to escape, risking his life. Denied freedom to sing and play the guitar in the communist regime does not seem to have dampened the passion of the artist so loved by the Korcars./ CNA
