Edo Krilic - Superb Stuff from Sarajevo

[maugein96]

I have posted this one in this section rather than in the European music thread, as the first clip contains a waltz which Edo has composed in the vein of French musette. The second clip is a Bosnian tune.

To the uninitiated this is what Balkan tuned instruments sound like in the capable hands of players like this. Heard similar sort of stuff in Mostar, up the road from Sarajevo, amongst the bullet riddled buildings surrounding the Stari Most bridge (after it had been rebuilt). Almost made me want to throw my accordions away!

lots of notes but I don't consider it excessive.
