Cool Balkan folk music. All well played, with strings, perc, accordion, vox, clarinet. Some toe-tapping & dancey. Others klezmeresque. Still others slow & nostalgic. 1. Slow & mournful. Mostly vox & mandolin w/some bass. *2. Fast & lively folk dance. *3. Midtempo w/touches of klezmer, cool perc & chorus. *4. Fast w/fiery strings & heartfelt vocals. Great fun. 5. Slow clarinet/guitar opening. Vox comes in. Lush, romantic, sad. *6. Midtempo lots of chorus, strings, strong Arabic feel. 7. Perc, fem. vox, accordion. Midtempo w/ a hint of nostalgia. 8. Slow with a sad, lost gypsy sound & a hint of jazz guitar. 9. Slow w/a restrained vox/strings/accordion tremble. *10. Happy, upbeat. A Balkan yee-haw w/some gypsy jazz. 11. Bubbling accordion, into restrained & stately folk dance. 12. Fast, fast opening, slows down, picks up. A cool meander. *13. Slow and gorgeous. Like Balkan fado, heartbreaking. | ||
