During the tour in the Midwest, "Kosovo Peonies" (Kosovski Bozuri), the musical ethnic ensemble from Serbia, performed ten concerts at Serbian Orthodox churches in Chicago and other cities in the state of Illinois and Indiana, including the city of Indianapolis. Alongside the members of the "Kosovo Peonies", led by an actress Ivana Žigon, concerts include Bojana Peković, gusle, and Predrag Radisavljević, accordion. At the concerts they perform and recite songs inspired by Kosovo and Metohija. The attendance at the concerts was extremely good and the audience's reactions were very emotional.
