Strongly influenced by folks music from that region (a captivation he shares with István Mártha and Ernö Király), minimum art, Bela Bartok, and the school of view of Bela Hamvas (too influential on Hungarian composer Tibor Szemzö), Kovac's music takes multiple forms. His production pot buoy be split in triad categories: the deep unearthly cycles he writes for his ensemble Rite Nova; more formal contemporaneous sleeping accommodation music for dance and theater; and eventually his LaDaABa Orchest, a party band for the end of the world. Kovac was born in 1955 in the Vojvodina region, at the extreme northwest point of Yugoslavia. Bordered by Hungary, this region historically enjoyed an sovereign status until the Yugoslavian war of the early '90s when it was annexed by Slobodan Milosevic. Kovac's parents made him take accordion lessons when he was a youngster, just it only light-emitting diode him toward academic music and, besides one yr of study on sax, he is self-taught on a wide array of instruments. In 1977, Kovac formed the ECM-style jazz mathematical group Meta Sekcija, his number 1 project. Things became serious with the shaping of Ritual Nova in 1982, which included within its ranks keyboardist Stevan Kovacz Tickmayer. With this chemical group Kovac would explore a highly original grade of composition, blending ancient traditions and postmodern techniques to press out spiritual ideals like fraternal love life and peace; a reaction to the difficult multiplication Yugoslavia would go through and through for the next decennary and a half. Kovac released his commencement LP, Ritual Nova, in 1986 on the low Yugoslavian label Symposion. The English label Recommended picked it up for distribution and released its 1989 followup in its Eastern-European series Points East. Political instability sent Kovac and his mathematical group into expat in 1991. For the future quintet days, Kovac lived in Italy, Austria, and Slovenia. During this period he worked for the most part for the theatre and began cultivate on Recollection: Ecumenical Mysteries. This cycle (his to the highest degree profoundly spiritual to date) became in 1996 the number one of deuce albums for the Canadian label Victo. That year, Kovac resettled in his home base town Novi Sad. In 1997, he participated in the Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville and toured the reality with his supporting players. Meanwhile, he struggled to reconstruct a originative music scene in his region. Prompted by the NATO bombardments in Kosovo and the abiding instability of the region, he formed La Danza Apocalyptica Balcanica (or LaDaABa Orchest) in 2001, a zany dance palace orchestra to exorcize the rabidity of war. The mathematical group released its number one album, The Last Balkan Tango, later that yr.
