The Chords have been transposed to Bb to avoid confution for the player. If you would like to play with a guitasrist, accordionist or other C instrument accomaniment, please get the C-instrument version for the other player.
This book delves into the rich musical traditions of the Eastern European and Balkan Danube regions, shaped by Ottoman influences. However, to capture the essence of a complete journey, it extends all the way to the river’s source in Donaueschingen, Germany.
More than just a collection, this book is an educational and inspirational resource for musicians—both amateur and professional—who wish to explore the alternative musical heritage of the Danube.
