Divna Ljubojevic was born in Belgrade in 1970. She studied at the Mokranjac Musical School and graduated from the Novi Sad Musical Academy. She practiced religious singing with the choir of Vavedenje monastery, where she was trained by the sisters who held her to the unique style derived from Karlovatz singing, and faithfully cherished traditional Russian singing.
In 1991 she created the Melodi Choir, composed of 10 singers. The repertoire focuses on works belonging to Orthodox sacred music, from the oldest monadic or polyphonic Byzantine, Serbian, Bulgarian and Russian pieces, to contemporary works.
Divna won many awards as a teacher during musical school competitions. In 1997, with the help of Orthodox Bishop Luka, she founded a choir in Paris St. Sava Church, and gave concerts of Slav and Greek liturgical music in Brussels, Senlis and Paris.
Her name Divna means "wonderful" in English. Her voice certainly lives up to her name!
