Carmina Slovenica - Balkanika

Balkanika

Author of the project and conductor: Karmina Šilec

The human voice raised in song is far more eloquent than when it speaks.

From their knowledge of this profund verity, the Balkan people place the art of song at the pinnacle of artistic expression. Their genius in this field - fruit of a thousand year - long story of tears and suffering - draws his nourishment from roots than go back to another world: Byzantium. The thousand year-long tradition of Balkan songs suffered from all the tribulations of a history marred in blood - to be followed by the nightmare of five centuries under the Ottoman yoke. And so their vocal art, the only free expression open to the Balkan people, has been coloured, layered, down the ages. Monodic in its beginnings, then strangely diaphonic, this songs developed his own polyphony which encountered Western harmony in the 20th century.

Songs like this have taught me what I consider a very important lesson. You do not have to know the language to recognize (vocal) power and beauty when you hear it.
