Radojka \u0160verko <\/strong>is one of Croatia\u2019s most prominent musical divas, whose distinguishable, luxurious voice has been recognized by many festivals in the country and abroad.<\/p>\n

Although her professional singing career began in 1967, \u0160verko became known to the wider public after her performance of \u201cKud plovi ovaj brod\u201d at the Split music festival<\/em> in 1970, when the great Italian star Sergio Endrigo<\/a> was an alternate for the same song. Her first major international achievement came with a the third place at the 1969 Festival del Atlantico in Tenerife<\/em>, earned with a song \u201cNuestro mundo\u201d by Alfi Kabilj<\/a>o. The following year, she received the Most Outstanding Performance award after singing \u201cSvijet je moj\u201d, also written by Alfi Kabiljo, becoming the first artist to win this recognition after the famed Janis Joplin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The list of venues where she performed and won awards continues with Tokyo, Los Angeles, Madrid, Seoul, Athens, Puerto Rico, Caracas, Curacao, Bratislava, Florence, Palma de Mallorca, Rio de Janeiro, etc. At some of these festivals, \u0160verko outperformed David Bowie<\/a> and Natalie Cole, who were also among her competitors.<\/p>\n

During the 1980s, Radojka \u0160verko made a career in theatre. Her debut was in the Gubec-beg<\/em> rock opera as Jana (directed by Vlado \u0160tefan\u010di\u0107<\/a>), followed by a role in Gri\u010dka vje\u0161tica<\/em>, another rock opera (the character of Nera), Les Mis\u00e9rables <\/em>the musical (as Fantine), and rock opera Karolina Rije\u010dka<\/em> (starring as Karolina). Radojka \u0160verko likes to have religious music on her repertoire often, and to perform it in churches accompanied by the organ, a choir, or a chamber orchestra. This repertoire features music written by Bach, Gounod, Schubert, Verdi, and Mozart, among others.<\/p>\n
