Tonight, the “Ohrid Summer” festival will host a promotion of the books “Radio” and “Irregular Rhythm” by author Ljupcho Jolevski. The event will take place in the forecourt of the Church of St. Sophia, starting at 9 PM.
Ljupcho Jolevski is a journalist who began his professional career in the early 1980s with the youth newspaper of Macedonia, “Mlad Borec,” around the same time he started his Interdisciplinary Studies in Journalism at the University of “St. Cyril and Methodius” in Skopje.
A decade later, in the 1990s, he moved to the Second Program of Macedonian Radio, where he worked as a journalist and host of several contact and music shows. From 1995, alongside his regular program duties, he spent four years as the editor-coordinator of the cult station “Stotrojka” (Music Radio – Channel 103). During this period, the station received the Annual MRTV Award for its programming achievements. Jolevski himself received this prestigious recognition from MRTV as a journalist and editor in 1998.
Throughout this decade and a half, his articles appeared in the review “Ekran,” magazines “Rock,” “Vreme – Zabave,” “Macedonian Time,” and “Grad.”
Ljupcho Jolevski has published two books: “Radio” and “Irregular Rhythm – Stories from the Contemporary Macedonian Music Scene.” For his long-standing work in journalism, he was awarded the “13 November” award by the City of Skopje last year.
