Gd 227 Voice of DOBRUDJA - Galina DURMUSHLIYSKA CD
VOICE OF DOBRUDJA BULGARIAN FOLK CD
Issued: 2000
Style: folklore music
Company: Gega New GD227
One of the best performers of Dobrudja folklore, in her CD Dormushliyska has included some of the most beautiful songs characteristic of the region.
Dobrudja is a unique folk region that has produced songs preserved by the Bulgarians beyond the boundaries of the country, together with local tunes which have inevitably been influenced by the neighbouring folk regions. This variety of layers has created the specific character of the Dobrudja music and dance art. Rarely, however, do folk-music lovers have a chance to experience its beauty the way it is presented by Galina DURMUSHLIYSKA, with exquisiteness and style. She began singing at an early age and was trained in the school of the Dobrudja Ensemble in the town of Dobrich. Having made numerous recordings for the Bulgarian National Radio, the singer does not limit herself to the already familiar songs but rather continues exploring little known folk samples, still existing in the small Dobrudja villages. Some of these have been included in Gega New's release "Voice of Dobridja". Together with songs from North and South Dobrudja (North Dobrudja is now in the territory of Romania), the singer has included in her programme songs from Bessarabia and a tune which Mita Stoicheva, the famous folk singer, never recorded. The booklet notes to the release contain detailed information about them and indications to the exact origination of the songs, something that is seldom done in similar editions. Durmushliyska performs these songs with gratitude and love for the people from whom she has inherited them, thus creating real gems of vocal folk art. The participation of such professionals in the sphere of folk art like Kosta Kolev and Petar Krumov, along with their younger colleagues Theodosii Spassov, Georgi Petkov and Georgi Andreev enhances the beauty and colour of the Dobrudja folk music.
