Biography
Drawing from the legacies of Segovia, Williams, and Bream, guitarist Miloš Karadaglić came forward in the early 2010s intent on sparking renewed enthusiasm for the classical guitar. His precise technique combined with an energetic selection of pieces led to recordings that spotlighted South American creators on the 2012 release Latino and interpreted Beatles melodies in the 2016 album Blackbird, in addition to other concept-driven collections. This global recognition earned him the simplified moniker Miloš, under which Blackbird marked his fourth consecutive entry in the upper ranks of the Billboard Classical Albums chart.
Montenegro was the birthplace of Karadaglić in 1983, where he began playing at eight years old and swiftly progressed from regional public appearances to receiving countrywide honors during his youth. A scholarship granted at age 16 enabled studies at London's Royal Academy of Music, after which he remained in the city following graduation.
The year 2010 brought a recording contract with Deutsche Grammophon. His debut effort, Mediterráneo, arrived in 2011 and presented selections from beloved Spanish figures alongside elements from his Balkan heritage; issued with merely his first name on the packaging, it achieved the pinnacle of classical rankings internationally. Latino, also known as Pasion, came out the following year and emphasized repertoire from South America by composers such as Piazzolla and Villa-Lobos. In 2013, this set was reissued as Latino Gold, incorporating extra tracks like "Besame Mucho" and "The Girl from Ipanema." The subsequent official album, Aranjuez from 2014, centered on compositions by Spanish creators Joaquín Rodrigo and Manuel de Falla. A departure appeared with 2016's Blackbird: The Beatles Album, which adapted several Beatles standards. He assumed the role of President of Alumni at the Royal Academy of Music that same year.
Hand discomfort and diminished strength began to affect Karadaglić near the launch of Blackbird, necessitating a phase of recuperation. By 2019, he delivered the initial public performance of Howard Shore's concerto for guitar, composed specifically with him in mind, at a concert in Ottawa, Canada during May. Decca then released Sound of Silence four months afterward, blending classical selections with renditions extending from "Over the Rainbow" to the Magnetic Fields' "The Book of Love."
