The songs from Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, Bosnia, Romania and Hungary vibrate with the raw and melancholic, as well as feisty atmosphere of the Balkans, they tell stories about beauty and love, as well as about longing and the transitoriness of human existence.
The musicians of Iliria Nueva have picked up traditional motives and the typical uneven and driving rhythms and blended these archaic elements with modern, exciting elements and soloing – World Music at it’s best!
