Abstract :Selena Rakočević, a Professor of Ethnochoreology at the University of Arts in Belgrade Faculty of Music Department of Ethnomusicology, passed away on May 18, 2022 after losing a battle with a short but serious illness. The news found me while traveling to meet with the dance research network CoDa in Brussels. Upon arriving in Brussels, I found that the news had travelled faster than myself, and many colleagues from the network were shocked and saddened by her death. The news caused ripples among the professional communities of dancers, dance scholars, and ethnomusicologists in Serbia and across the world. Selena Rakočević left us too soon, but not before leaving a strong mark on international music and dance scholarship. Born on October 26, 1971 in Belgrade, Selena Rakočević (née Litvinović) spent her childhood and youth in Pančevo. She received music education at primary and secondary levels, was an accomplished pianist, and was also a talented singer and performer within the pop and jazz music genres.
