Jug Marković (*1987 Belgrade, Serbia) studied composition (MA) at the University of Arts in Belgrade as well as archaeology. This was followed by several years of study in Paris, where he completed the course in composition and computer music at IRCAM. As a composer he works in acoustic, electroacoustic and electronic music. His approach is mostly intuitive, and he tries to avoid strict concepts and formalistic systems in his music in favor of stylistic heterogeneity, the hybridity of genres, and the exploration/recontextualization of procedures and sound gestures that have been historically charged with certain meanings and connotations. He is particularly passionate about electronic music and its potential to juggle genres and expectations. His works have been performed at many renowned new music festivals in Europe (such as ManiFeste, Donaueschinger Musiktage, Biennale Nemo, Time of Music, Festival d’Aix-en-Provence, New Music Dublin). They have been awarded many times at competitions. Currently he is working on works for IRCAM and Divertimento Ensemble.
