carkner, 6 months ago to Romanian

#Romanian or #Moldovan music folks, help me out if you are out there, does this mode or scale (very common in your folk music) have a particular name or names in Romanian? I'm trying to rewrite the crap wikipedia article about it from a more cross-cultural perspective and this aspect is defeating my keyword searches. I know it in a Jewish context as Mi Sheberach, altered dorian or Ukrainian dorian.

carkner, 9 months ago to Greek

Have been listening to a bunch of new old tracks by this #Greek fiddler Alexis Zoumbas today, they're all great but this Romanian-style doina is so excellent. Some quality fiddling.

Still on my kick of listening to #Romanian #Cobza music and came across this excellent album with its very striking cover on youtube

dancarkner, 1 year ago to random

Niche folkloric post, but if someone wants a PDF of a 1908 collection of Romanian folk tunes ... I wanted to print it from the Romanian national library but they had it as a series of image files. I merged it into one file to make it easier to print. Missing a page or two that wouldn't load in their file system and I skipped the blank pages because it's so big.
