Instructional writing
In 2011, Vildi? wrote a handbook on the basis of music theory, "Muzika" (Music), in the Bosnian language.
In the preface he stated:
As a teacher in the elementary music school, I felt the need, and obligation, and decided to make a kind of textbook, and thus give its modest contribution to the development of young artists [...] who are evidently deprived of this part of literature adapted to their age and stage of development.
Professor Vildana Zukic reviewed this work, stating, "the manual deals with simple, clear and concise overview, written in simple text with no redundant data, and as such is suitable for beginners and children of school age. The manual features carefully selected material with all the examples that significantly facilitate the mastering of music theory and musical concepts." Professor Jasmin Bra?nji? wrote that the guide, "will have great significance for the profession", clearly defining explanations in a field often obscured with excessive evidence and detail.
