Theodora Baka (born in Larissa, Greece) has been familiar with the traditional songs of her homeland since she was a child. The singer is accompanied by an unusual formation (’ud, lyre, and zarb) that underscores the songs’ remote, southern timbre. Her versatile voice celebrates in song the old legends and myths of her homeland, laments the lost freedom of a young bride, and converses with a lover. The yearning sound of Baka’s voice is captivating.

Das „United Continuo Ensemble“ liebt es, alte Musik mit neuen Aspekten zu verbinden. Auf dem Programm dieser „Fiesta Española“ ergänzen sich in temperamentvoller Anmut frühbarocke Stücke - wie das eingängige „Ojos pues me desdeñais“ von José Marin (gesungen von Mercedes Hernandéz) - mit modernen Flamencokompositionen. Besonders spannend wird die Aufnahme durch das hörbare Tanzen von Elva La Guardia - Palmas, Kastagnetten und der kraftvolle Rhythmus ihrer Füße begleiten nicht nur die Flamencostücke, sondern auch einige der frühbarocken Kompositionen. So wird bspw. das Instrumentalstück »Jácaras« von Gaspar Sanz mit dem Flamencorhythmus der bulerias unterlegt, am Ende steigert es sich bis zu den markanten zapateados der Tänzerin. Aus diesen zahlreichen Begegnungen entstehen ungewohnte und mitreißende Momente. Eine wahrhaftige „Fiesta española“, auf der Laute und Barockgitarre gemeinsam mit Flamencogitarre und Cajon erklingen und auf der sich frühbarocke Melodien mit dem Klagegesang des Flamenco verbinden.

THE VOICE OF PIRIN - music: Kiril Stefanov 2:14
Pirin Ensemble was founded more than 55 years ago in Blagoevgrad. The ensemble quickly established itself as one of the best and attractive formations in Bulgaria. Its repertoire includes original songs and dances mainly from the Pirin region. But in recent years the ensemble increasingly features also music from other folk areas. The album “Old Treasure” shows this variety of music and dance, presented on the stage by the extremely beautiful costumes of the performers. Divided into two parts, the programme includes myths and rituals, holidays and weekdays not only from Southwest Bulgaria, but also from other Bulgarian folklore regions. Swift shoppe ring dances (horos) alternate with the exquisite women ring dances, with Pirin dances and the hefty men’s Dobrudja dancing. The choir, orchestra and soloists with their skill and talent are equal partners which shape the overall stage picture. PIRIN, the Bulgarian ensemble for songs and dances, is a generous gift to the world! - This recognition comes from Columbia Concert House, USA and it summarizes in one sentence the creative achievements of the ensemble and its impact on the viewers. |

This collectors' 4 CD boxset brings together 55 classic tracks that inspired the development of bhangra. Recorded in and around Southall between 1978 and 2000 by numerous popular bands it also includes the first analogue albums made by Premi and Heera. The word Bhangra originally described a type of folk dance and song performed by male groups in the Punjab. Today, Bhangra is global musical phenomena due to a gradual reinvention that took place in England between the mid-1960s and mid-1990s. The impact has been so profound, that it has influenced music produced in Mumbai - the music capital of India - and many Bollywood songs now incorporate British Bhangra rhythms and lyrics. This box set spotlights an era, one that was originally a fragmented music scene, and it highlights the legacy and lure of a variety of artists in the development of British music. A double CD includes original recordings by Bhujhangy, Sangeeta and Mohinder Kaur Bhamra, including special appearances from India stars K Deep and Hans Raj Hans. All tracks were produced and directed by Kuljit Bhamra who also plays tabla, dholak, percussion and keyboards. included are two original analogue albums made by Premi: Chhamak Jehi Mutiar and Heera: Jagh Wala Mela. |

Antchis Chati Chor (Tbilissi), Tsinandali Chor (Telavi/Kachetien), Three Elderly Singers (Gurien)
The traditional music of Georgia is the only music in the world to be under UNESCO protection. The music of Georgia is at its origins polyphonic. That none of the neighbouring countries have produced anything similar, eliminates the possibility that Georgians were directly influenced by other musical cultures. The Antchis Chati Choir has set itself the goal of reconstructing the Georgian repertoire in its original form. Its members maintain contacts with Georgian music experts all over the country. They often travel to villages, to record the song variations that are still sung today.
In summer 2003 Raumklang (Sebastian Pank) travelled to Georgia and met there beside the Antchis Chati Choir the Tsinandali Choir and three older singers from Guria. This recording was produced with an emergency generator in an old monastery, an abandoned cinema, and a former cultural centre. With this CD one can travel through Georgia in a musical way. From the powerful songs of Kachetia, Kartli and Megrelia - songs of love, about the host, wedding songs, an ancient field work song and others - to the sacred music from the Schemokmedi monastery. |
