Kurbeti (Fatos Selmani) - Koritsa
Kurbeti (Fatos Selmani) Koritsa
Kurbeti: Music Of Albania's Gypsies FM 1999
a show of music from southern Albania. Bluesy at times, like the Greek music played across the border, and often featuring a Polyphonic vocal style unique to that corner of Europe, it has slowly evolved over the last few decades. After the fall of the communist government in the late '80s, many musicians emigrated to Greece and recorded there. We start the show with example of such a recording.
