Listen here to a performance from Bajsa Arifovska, the Romani musician who taught it to me:
I’m passionate about teaching music. I love to pass on my love for music, the fulfilment it brings to me, and how an instrument as companion for your life can really make a difference, no matter if as hobby or for more. I’m also dedicated to help my students to hop on that positive cycle of working hard and biting yourself through a difficulty, and as result experiencing that special joy once the skill is achieved and with it, playing will reach a new level of fun.
