About
Lazar Miletic is widely recognized as one of Serbia’s most exciting young viola talents.
Born in Kragujevac, Serbia in 1990 Lazar was a gifted child giving his first concert at the age of 10. As soloist on viola he debuted with Dusan Skovran String Orchestra from Serbia. During his studies he was awarded the prize from “Meri Zezelj” foundation as the most distinguished string player. His artistic achievements and contributions have garnered numerous national and international prizes. Lazar graduated in the class of Panta Velickovic and continued his studies with one of today’s most outstanding violist, Lars Anders Tomter.
Lazar’s versatility lies in the fact that he plays the viola with the same energy whether he performs as a soloist or chamber musician. In the Swedish chamber orchestra Musica Vitae he lead the viola section for two years, and since 2016 he has been Artistic Leader and Director of MiN ensemble. Lazar participates in many international festivals all over the world as a soloist and with his ensemble.
Miletic is a founder and artistic director of the international competitions ,,Art of strings" in Serbia and ,,MiN international competition" in Norway.
