5.0 out of 5 stars
the best Yunakov,
By Erik (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Colors in Bulgarian Wedding Music (Audio CD)
Of the three Yunakov albums, this is my favorite. They're all beautiful to me! They're very Balkan; fast and racy. His is a perfect modern music with enough of the old Anatolian sound to be satisfying.

5.0 out of 5 stars
And now for something completely different . . .,
This review is from: New Colors in Bulgarian Wedding Music (Audio CD)
This record was my introduction to Bulgarian wedding music, and wow - what an introduction. For the uninitiated, Bulgarian wedding music isn't just for weddings. It was traditionally played for weddings as well as other ritual occasions, but is just as likely now to be heard in a New York nightclub.Yunakov is an alto saxophonist who leads a band which includes accordian, clarinet, bass and drums. His playing is edgy and very obviously jazz influenced. And the tunes groove HARD - some of them in meters I haven't figured out yet. Yunakov's improvisations are pretty brilliant and the heads are like Eastern European bebop. The sound in not unlike Klezmer, except for the meters. My favorite tune on the album is "Cocek Manhattan," but there isn't a weak track on the whole thing. Most world music lovers would dig this recording, as will new jazz fans.
