Balkan Beat: Kosovo music - Ramadan Krasniqi, Dren Abazi, Rona Nishliu

The first episode of the new 'Balkan Beat' series brings the story of the traditional music of Kosovo and its modern interpretations. We have listened to the first compositions from the Rugova peaks - the melodies created by leaves, pans and vocal cords; the customs of shepherds. In Peć, a male choir performed old town songs while traditional food was served, in the spirit of their elders from bazaar guilds. What is special about Pećka sofra and what does it mean to the younger generations? The tradition of a male choir performing old town music in their elders' manner.The music started by leaf-players has reached unusual jazz and other alternative forms. How did performers bring it closer to younger generations? How much do we know about them? How far do they consider Zagreb, Sarajevo, Belgrade to be?
