Dino Dragovic currently holds a position with the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra.

He received his first violin lesson at the age of eight and, by thirteen, became captivated by the rich, dark sound of the viola, choosing to switch to this instrument. As a young student, he won prizes in several national and international competitions, establishing himself as the most distinguished viola player of his generation in Serbia. He studied with Thomas Riebl at the Mozarteum University Salzburg and

Leo De Neve at Antwerp Conservatory. He also received guidance from Ulrich Knoerzer of the Berliner Philharmoniker and Milan Radic of the Mozarteum Orchestra Salzburg. 

During his studies, he developed a profound interest in chamber music, performing with various ensembles in Austria, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, Switzerland, France, China, and Taiwan. Influences on his chamber music understanding included teachers such as Rainer Schmidt, Reinhard Goebel, Wolfgang Redick, Bujor Prelipcean and Stefan Schilli.

He was a member of the Tiroler Festspiele orchestra in Austria from 2011 to 2014, having the privilege to play all of Wagner's operas under the baton of Maestro Gustav Kuhn.

In 2015, Dino won an audition for a position in the Flanders Symphony Orchestra, and in 2017, he won the audition for a position in the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra, where he has been a permanent member since January 2018.

In recent years, Dino has dedicated significant effort to teaching, emphasizing natural body posture while playing, exploring unique approaches to musical phrasing, and specializing in orchestral excerpts and audition preparation.
