“I was told, that fujara is a lady and she can only be played by men”

When Veronika Vitázková published a video in which she plays the didgeridoo, her critics accused her of disrespecting the sacred instrument of the aboriginal people of Australia. She heard similar criticism after playing the fujara.

Professional flutist based in Vienna, Bratislava born Veronika, respects these types of instruments and as she says: “ I enjoy conveying my love of music through different genres, styles and woodwind instruments from all over the world.

It is a joy to introduce traditional half forgotten instruments on an international stage and to inspire and bring new knowledge to my audience.”
