Jelena Martinoviæ Bogojeviæ, VIEWS ON THE ELEMENTARY MUSIC EDUCATION ...
The first music school was founded in Cetinje in 1936. After World War II, Secondary
Music School “Njegoš” was founded in Cetinje, and it continued working in Kotor since
1947. At that time, the elementary music school merges with private music school of Vida
Matjan. Slovenian Vida Matjan (born Hribar, 1896–1993), dedicated a large part of her
life to development of music education in Kotor. After completing studies at Glasbena
Matica in 1914, she enrolled in the Music Academy in Vienna, and she was prepared for it
by pianist an music pedagogue Anton Trost. Unfortunately, World War I prevented her to
finish her studies. She goes back to Ljubljana, and in 1930 she moves to Belgrade with her
husband Alojz Matjan where she completes the highest degree at Belgrade school
“Stankoviæ” under Prof. Emil Hajek. In that period, this level of education was equivalent
to a music academy which was still not founded in Belgrade. After the World War II,
Matjan family permanently moves to Kotor (Miloševiæ, 1983). The influence that this
talented woman, full of enthusiasm, had on development of music education was
invaluable, and she received many recognitions and awards during her lifetime. Today, the
music school in Kotor carries her name.3

Podgorica got a music school in 1946, and a secondary music school in 1958. Since 2005,
the school is called Public Institution Art School for Music and Ballet Vasa Paviæ,5 which
in its organization has the elementary and secondary music school, as well as elementary
ballet school. Slovenian music pedagogue Rudolf Zakrajšek (1915–1994) was one of the
long serving directors during whose mandate the school accomplished many successes.
