Viktor T.

My name is Viktor Tanaskovski and I am a professional musician from Skopje, Macedonia. I've graduated Jazz guitar in my home country in 2016. In 2022 I got a Master's degree in Applied music research at the Faculty of Music in Belgrade, Serbia, and at the moment I am taking my Doctoral studies in Polymedia Art at the University of Arts in Belgrade. Meanwhile I've been playing concerts and gigs with various bands, genres spanning from blues to rock, punk, heavy metal, Irish folk music, jazz and so on, and released two albums with my group Minstrel's Gallery (Progressive Art Rock) and one with my new group, Alembic (Experimental Post Rock). At the moment I am releasing a debut double LP with Improof, a collective free improvisation trio. I've also worked as a guitar and bass teacher in private music schools in Skopje, as well as in my home Studio. I have a high experience in notation softwares like MuseScore, and I also have a Steinberg Cubase certificate. I am also the organizer of the Skopje based free multimedia art festival "Sinestetika", and a part of the team behind the music podcast "Demobilizacija". In addition to music, I am also an amateur painter, and I write poetry. My first book of poems, entitled „Под остар агол“ (At an acute angle) was released in 2023. At the moment, I am working on my first solo music/performance/poetry/hand drawn animation piece which will be defended as a doctoral thesis at the University of Arts in Belgrade.
