There is a film "Latcho Drom" which details the music from the Indian continent to Egypt. Romania and on to Spain. You might enjoy seeing this film if you are interested in music. It's only on VHS, I believe.

Thank you for your comments.

It is sung by Bardar Ali Khan and the song is "Drowned In Your Eyes" on the "Lost in Qawwali III" cd. It is Urdu, I think....

@RayKalmNiam Well yeah todays macedonia is mostly populated with Albanians (and others: bullgarians, turks, gypsies etj.). But the original macedonia was populated by what you would today consider Greeks and Albanian (then Illyrians).

[RayKalmNiam]

@Marubi2 Seem to have more resemblance with Macedonia.

[Marubi2]

Is it true that these people are Illyrians (todays Albanians) who settled there in the time of Alexander the Great? Considering that the toponyms and words to describe different objects are exactly the same as in Albanian? Also considering in those time Illyrians were blonder, as opposed to greeks or other inthe region?

@errolmiranda Are the Kalash and Greek languages mutually intelligible? How similar is the Kalash language to Urdu, Persian, Kashmiri, Chitral, Pashai, and Nuristani?
