Thanos Stavridis & Drom - 9. Karsilamas (Roma Havasi)

Показать описание

As is well known, the Roma are predominantly the musicians of the Balkans, and it would not be right not to play a Roma Havasi as a small tribute to the musicians who, like bees, traveled from village to village, collecting melodies and spreading them, thus contributing in their own way to the preservation of many of these tunes. The rhythm is 9/8 (2+2+2+3), and the dance is typically performed in couples facing each other.

Drom are:

Thanos Stavridis: accordion, production supervision
Vassilis Athanasiou: clarinet, saxophone
Marios Makris: electric guitar
Giannis Karakalpakidis: electric bass
Christos Tassios: drums
