The Balkan Experience of Song and Ritual - Oj, djevojko, Anadolko
The song that finds home in many countries, but has no nationality. A beautiful love story told from multiple viewpoints. A proof, that love knows no physical borders and can travel as far as a song can be heard.
In our version, we wanted to help two lovers come a bit closer together by combining Bosnian and Turkish versions of the story.
Recorded live on Feb 11th, 2024 in coproduction of Društvo za ENO glasbo and KUD Center 21.

Lyrics:
Oj, djevojko, Anadolko, budi moja ti,
aj, oj djevojko, Anadolko, budi moja ti!
Ja ću tebi sevdalinke pjesme pjevati,
ja ću tebi sevdalinke pjesme pjevati.
Hraniću te bademima da mi mirišeš,
ej, hraniću te bademima, da mi mirišeš.
Pojiću te đul šerbetom da mi sevdišeš
pojiću te đul šerbetom da mi sevdišeš.
Üsküdar'a gider iken aldı da bir yağmur,
Üsküdar'a gider iken aldı da bir yağmur.
Kâtibimin setresi uzun, eteği çamur,
kâtibimin setresi uzun, eteği çamur.
Crne kose curo imaš, žališ li ih ti?
Aj, crne kose curo imaš, žališ li ih ti?
Aman da ih žalim, ne bih tebi dala da ih mrsiš ti,
aman da ih žalim, ne bih tebi dala da ih mrsiš ti.
Bjelo lice curo imaš, žališ li ga ti?
Aj, bjelo lice curo imaš, žališ li ga ti?
Aman da ga žalim, ne bih tebi dala da ga ljubiš ti,
aman da ga žalim, ne bih tebi dala da ga ljubiš ti.
Medna usta curo imaš, žališ li ih ti?
Aj, medna usta curo imaš, žališ li ih ti?
Aman da ih žalim, ne bih tebi dala da ih ljubiš ti,
aman da ih želim, ne bih tebi dala da ih ljubiš ti.

Contemporary arrangement of a traditional song from the east of Macedonia. Don't wither marigold garland, you traveled the long way from Istanbul for young maidens who are expecting you. They are in their beds, feeling weak, feeling sick. Custom made vests are ready to be tried on and worn...instead of laying in vain. Life is a cycle, year is a cycle, moon phases go through cycle.... yet we sti...

Contemporary arrangement of a traditional song from Gora, Kosovo i Metohija. The story talks about young woman becoming old enough to get married and how her love is conditioned by richness of the bachelor approaching. On the surface seemingly materialistic, we see the song as a commentary of women being forced at the time to choose material existence over matters of the heart, as they themselv...

5 Vocal Exercises to Improvise on Major Scale

Sharing with you my little vocal practice routine to keep my scales fresh, flexible and ready for improvisation. I hope you will enjoy practicing with me. *My personal recommendation is to use movable solfeggio system, meaning, I think of DO as a root note of the scale independently of whether it is actually C or any other note. You can find me on: FB: Jéle IG: jelena_soro Feel free to write me...
