Stefan Miladinov

At Folkuniversitetet, he teaches guitar with a focus on phrasing, vibrato, and blending technique with musicality, helping students develop their unique sound. He has also worked as a private guitar tutor for over a decade, providing tailored lessons for students of all levels.

Outside of teaching, Stefan has performed with acclaimed artists, including Zarina Prvasevda, whose ensemble won the UPBEAT Best New Talent Award in 2023. He has played at major festivals such as Balkan Trafik in Brussels and recorded with bands like Chromatic Point (“Sliki od Starata Kukja” (2014), “Izgrev” (2016)), Petar Malinov (“100 denari” (2014)), and Cobalt Code Unit (“Soilwork” (2020)). Passionate about folk music, he researches Macedonian musical traditions, working to adapt tambura techniques to the guitar and integrate them into contemporary genres like world music, folk rock, and metal.
