Milanče Radosavljević was born with paralysis of the hands. For a long time his hands did not work normally. He became an accordionist. On September 12, in his 81st year, he plays at SRC Petnica in Valjevo, on a tour he has called „From Valjevo to Loznica”.

He was born in Barič near Obrenovac on October 12, 1944. He first saw an accordion at a neighbour's house in 1957, and his parents soon bought him one. He inherited the talent from his father, who played violin, flute and clarinet. The turning point was meeting the composer Aleksandar Stepić, with whose orchestra many singers were recording at the time. He recorded his first record only at 31, with songs by Aca Stepić, which was late even by the standards of his own era.

He is the author of 44 songs. Some of them are known across the whole region, but many people do not know that he is the one singing them - the fate of musicians from that generation whose names stayed behind the songs. After more than 50 years of career, this is his first major solo concert. He still lives in his native Barič, where he has a plot of land and builds his own farming machinery to work it.

On stage with him are also Aleksandar Sofronijević's „Majstori za dušu”. Tickets are via tickets.rs, which also offers bar and banquet tables with a minimum number of tickets per table.
