PGP RTB – LPV 190 – Recorded by Dragoslav Dević, 1958 (LP).
Intense, minimal and abstract, the arresting folk music of the Balkans features dissonant vocals and wails, complex rhythms and quirky instrumentals. This wonderful panorama of the traditional music of Yugoslavia—which broke up in 1991—showcases that distinct Balkan sound from the myriad cultures featured on the LP that are now spread across Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia and Montenegro.
Ethnomusicologist Dragoslav Devic (1925-2017) played a major role in safeguarding these wonderful musics, recordings some 10,000 tracks and collecting over 500 folk musical instruments, now part of the Faculty of Music's collection in Belgrade.
La musique folklorique des Balkans est intense, épurée et abstraite, avec notamment des chants faits de dissonances et de gémissements, des rythmes complexes et des plages instrumentales déroutantes. Ce disque fascinant offre un large panorama de la musique traditionnelle de Yougoslavie – qui a éclaté en 1991 – avec ce son si caractéristique des Balkans. Les cultures présentées sur ce 33 tours vivent désormais en Serbie, en Bosnie, en Croatie, au Kosovo, en Macédoine et au Monténégro.
L'ethnomusicologue Dragoslav Devic (1925-2017) a joué un rôle majeur dans la sauvegarde de ces merveilleuses musiques en enregistrant quelque 10.000 morceaux et en recueillant plus de 500 instruments de musique folkloriques qui font maintenant partie de la collection de la Faculté de musique de Belgrade.
