BALKANIZE! plays VALLE E POGRADECIT at Tribal Jam 5

This was the debut performance of BALKANIZE! at Tribal Jam 5, May 12, 2007, in Richmond, Virginia; we play folk music from Bulgaria, Macedonia, Serbia, Turkey, Greece, Armenia, Albania, Romania and Hungary.

This song is "Valle e Pogradecit" from Albania.

The dancer is AHSIN.

BALKANIZE! is made up of:
Geoff Bennett Speer: octave mandolin, kaval, saz, davul, mey, accordion.
Laurie Hribal: violin, vocals, riqq.
Nancy Smith: guitar, vocals, riqq, zils.
Patrick McGhee: darbuka, tar, vocals.

Please excuse the obnoxious FREE TRIAL stamp on the video; I couldn't find any freeware conversion software without it, and this one was, by far, the least obtrusive.
