Tamburitza! Hot String Band Music: From the Balkans to America: 1910-1950

Tamburitza is the name of a family of long-necked lutes, often with pear-shaped bodies, and the style of music played on the instruments. Originally of Middle Eastern origin, they have had a prominent role in the music of many Eastern European and Balkan countries for centuries. This two-CD collection of music includes a number of pre-acoustic recordings as it traces the evolution of the music from the Balkans to America.
