Cellier does it again
Michael Landes | Woodside, CA United States | 08/22/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Mr. Cellier is best known for combing the archives in Bulgaria for the cream of thirties years of records to produce

Le Mystere des voix de Bulgare volumes 1 and 2.



Here he has brought the same fine ear to Albania, combing the vaults for wonderful representative tracks of the various styles to be found in the various traditions there. There is nothing academic is the result. This is simply a great listenable record.



Just by way of example, the two tracks representing the ancient polyphonic style of Vlore are the best I've ever found. Take that as indicative of the collection as a whole. If you have any interest in Albanian traditional music, start here."
