• Renowned pianist, aeducator and musical pioneer in Europe and North America - Dec. 2015
  This portrait will focus on how the innate musicality of Ms. Damjana Bratuz, an amazing woman who lost her childhood to World War 2 created a new life for herself as a worldly, musical pioneer. Although much is already noted about her family and the oppressions which they faced after the collapse of the Austrian-Hungarian empire to Fascism, the portrait will show how music education and performance started her travels around the globe and how they eventually led to her settling into a life in North America. With this portrait, I hope to show how she escaped the post war struggles and depression which were endured by many through life as a pianist; a talent which she considers "the solution of a difficult situation." Through various meetings with her, we were able to enjoy a typical Italian afternoon espresso while she recounted the events and moments which have lead to her unique life story. I was initially motivated to tell her story in this manner because I believe that there is much more depth to this strong woman than the fact that she survived during World War 2. In my opinion, I believed that it would be important to document how she found perseverance in one of the most unlikely weapons; music.
