So while his parents were at work, he arranged the living room himself and recorded his favorite pieces, one at a time over straight five days and then sent it to the academy.
He was accepted on a scholarship.
The video he recorded to apply is also in A Journey.
Milos learned under the British guitarist Michael Lewin, head of guitar studies of the academy, for four years. He graduated with first class honors in 2004. He went on to complete a master's degree in performance and became the first guitarist the Royal Academy of Music has named a Meaker Junior Fellow.
He devised a theme for his debut album on DG, which reflects his own experiences.
"The guitar was brought to Spain by the Moors and has a huge Arabic influence," he explains.
"My part of the world and the eastern Mediterranean were heavily under the influence of the Ottoman empire for 500 years. So there is a clear connection between the eastern and western Mediterranean. I am exactly in the middle of them, and I want to present that on this recording."
