Leveranstid: Skickas vanligtvis inom 2-5 dagar
Montenegro is perhaps one of the least-known countries in Europe from a musical point of view. But with the album "Music from Montenegro", the whole world can enjoy the traditional music from this "unknown" country, with its long and dramatic history. The album presents 76 minutes of heroic songs, songs from mountain villages, shepherd songs and even songs from cities that are more influenced by the Central European tradition.
One of the groups participating in this album, Ansambl Podgorica, who is one of Montenegro's best-known and most-loved professional popular music orchestras, plays both the "classical" entertainment music from Montenegro and the more traditional music from the countryside.
Montenegro, with a population of more than 675,000, is one of the most beautiful countries in Europe. It has a history that is as dramatic as its natural scenery. In just a couple of hours one can be transported from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea to an alpine landscape with snow-covered peaks.
The album "Music from Montenegro" is no. 22 in a recording series produced jointly by Sida (the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency) and Caprice Records. The series started in the early 1990s and has resulted in many records with music from Africa, Asia, Latin America and other places.
