"The greatest mandolinist in the world"

Born in Split (former Jugoslavija) where he got a diploma in classical guitar,

Aco Bocina plays mandolin with a complete revolutionary stile.

He is gifted with a unique unmistakable technique which makes of him a mandolin virtuoso. He is able to obtain sounds that astonish his larger and larger audience crowding Arenas, Thethres and Cathedrals where Aco performs his very special concerts.

The music he proposes ranges from classical to jazz, from symphonic pop-rock to the variations on themes by famous Authors.

In short, music has no boundaries nor limits for Aco Bocina.

Every musical composition of his own is a striking combination of technical masterpieces and imaginative musical ideas.

Back from a triumphant long tour in Austria, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands and Danmark, he is now staying in Italy, engaged in a series of concerts which range from Cathedrals to small clubs, from arenas to theatres, to open-air town squares, to holiday villages, wherever it's possible to make music and to gather enthusiastic listeners.

On the recording side, after a first album released in Germany, Aco Bocina has collected collaborations to albums of important Italian Artists as Pierangelo Bertoli, Fabio Concato, Grazia Di Michele, and others.

In 1992 Aco Bocina was awarded the International Prize of Culture "San Valentino d'Oro", sponsored by the Ministry of Tourism and Culture, and started working on this album "Ad Libitum" which was released in 1995.

Since then, the popularity of Aco has been growing and growing, taking part in important TV shows in Italy and abroad, and continuing with his never ending tour of concerts.

After the release of a maxi-single, Aco is now working to his new album, soon to be released.
