It's just music, maybe the finest,
By Jaume Cambra (Barcelona (Spain)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silence of the Balkans (Audio CD)
I'm from Spain and I don't writte very good in english, but I'll try! I like music, I like good music. It doesn't matter to me if you call it jazz, pop, classical, folk... I don't mind. I like Bach, Mozart, Beethoven or Brahms, but also Beatles, Van Morrison or David Bowie, Bela Bartok's quartets or Bach's Passions. A friend of mine introduce me the music of Bregovic and "The Silence of the Balkans" is one of the fine records I've heard for a long time. Try to mix classical chamber music with balkan folk music with minimalism with a touch of class with pop and with delicious female singing. Impossible? Is "Delicious Solitude" one of the finest songs of the last years? Why must we listen what the "industry" wants? Are "Ederlezy" or "Green Thought" more than just very good folk music? Is Goran Bregovic one of the really important living composers of today? I think yes! And I think in a few years Goran Bregovic will be accepted worldwide as one of the most creative and important composers. Until then I recommend you to listen this work, but, important! without preconception.

For the Ederlezi (song) fan....,
By sandika "sandika" (Arcadia, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silence of the Balkans (Audio CD)
If you ever have any desire at all to get up and dance, GET THIS ITEM! The title track, "Silence of the Balkans", is a a get-up-offa-your-seat-and-shake-that-groove-thang remix of Ederlezi. I was stunned but compelled to move when I first heard this version and had been looking for it for a good year when I found it at the German Amazon.comsite. Would you believe I'm about to upgrade my car's audio system for this song??? YOWZA, Goran!

Silence of the Balkans,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Silence of the Balkans (Audio CD)
Beautiful music, a modern classic. I love it but then I am a fan of Bregovic. Highly recommended. I am not a music critic, so this will have to make do, otherwise I won't get 20 words and this review won't be accepted:)

Stop stealing GEORGIAN FOLK music,
By Eddy (Los Angeles, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silence of the Balkans (Audio CD)
How the hell fragments combined almost 4000 year old GEORGIAN FOLK music can become balkan origin? For interested people, I would suggest to search for Georgian folk music and compare it with Goran's great music from CD or the movies. Example: "train" starts and ends by it, and so on, and so on. Maybe I am wrong, but that's my opinion knowing that GORAN visited GEORGIA in 1997 |
