"Milos playing is full off passion, perfection and has fantastic audience appeal- he's a true virtuoso" - Virginia Sindelar
A native of Serbia, Milos Bjelica is a Boston-based clarinetist and educator, passionate about drawing audiences deeper into the art of music. His work as a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral player has taken him to many cities across Europe and the United States. He has performed in venues such as Berlin Philharmonic Hall, Kolarac Hall in Belgrade, Music Academy in Katowice, Selmer Show Room and Pompidou Square in Paris, Tsai Center, and BSO concert hall and Pickman Hall in Boston. Dedicated to making classical, jazz, world, and Serbian music available to wider audiences, Milos also steps out of the concert halls and plays in unconventional venues such as public parks, metro stations, and large city squares across the USA and Europe. He is the recipient of numerous awards at national and international competitions including the Concerto and Honors competition at Longy School of Music (2017) and the Harold Wright Merit Award in Boston (2016), Concerto competition at Boston University (2020).
Milos holds a DMA from Boston University and a Master’s degree and Artist Diploma from the Longy School of Music of Bard College, as well as a BA from the University of Belgrade. Throughout his career, he has studied with distinguished professors including Ante Grgin, Jonathan Cohler, Ljubisa Jovanovic, Wenzel Fuchs, Gabor Varga, Frank Cohen, Yuan Yuan, Philippe Cuper, Mate Bekavac, and Paul Mayer. He teaches at the Maestro Musicians Academy, and in his private studio.
