The Camille Award for Lifetime Achievement

ECSA will present The Lifetime Achievement Award to one of the greatest Croatian, European, and world-renowned composers of film, theatre, and TV music: Alfi Kabiljo.

 

With this award, ECSA wishes to honor his successful career which spans half a century, with over 40 films and 100 TV series. The Alliance believes Mr. Kabiljo’s ability to work across so many musical genres over the years, while maintaining such a high level of professionalism and artistic integrity, serves as an example to the entire community of audiovisual music creators.

 

During the awards ceremony, a medley of Mr. Kabiljo’s greatest film and TV scores will be performed live by the FAME’s Studio Orchestra Music Recording Company from North Macedonia.
