The television show featuring Anna Beređieva from Selenča is more than a tale about music, or about her singing career. It testifies to the active cultivation of Slovak folk tradition on the territory of Vojvodina, Serbia. With the support of her family, teachers and friends, Anna’s voice has risen high over her birthplace of Selenča and long ago surpassed local boundaries, finding its way to Slovakia itself, where she is recognized as an exceptional young artist. Anna’s preparations for every performance are thorought – from the repertoire to her choice of national costume.
