Influences
Classical Music.
I am also trying to show a little bit of the Albanian Classical Music.
What is here is very little part of it. I am trying to learn how to put more music on such small storage. I hope I will get better at figuring this out.
I know a lots of people don't know anything about Albania or its culture! Here is a little bit more !
Mrs. Hima-Buli is Albanian native, who started the violin when she was six and a half years old at the Music School in Tirane. These years she studied with teachers such as Proletare Skenderi, Flora Klimi and Pirro Gjezi. She continued her studies in Bucharest, Romania where she had Master-classes and lessons with Stefan Georgiu and Serban Dimitrie Soreaunu. She got her Masters Degree in Performance from the Boston Conservatory, where she was mentored by Ronan Lefkowitz (BSO) and Judith Eisenberg of the Lydian string Quartet, and later Virginia Neikrug.
Mrs. Hima-Buli is a very active musician, and was the founder member of New Horizon Piano Trio (2003-2005), performer at Salem Chamber Music Series in NY, as recitalist and orchestra player. She is the co-founder of Alberica Duo ( Flute and Violin), that recently had their debut Recital.
Mrs. Hima-Buli teaches in Boston and surrounding areas from beginners to very advanced students. Her students have participated in most prestigious youth orchestras in Boston and have won youth competitions. She was a coach for Festival Youth Orchestra at The New England Conservatory of Music during summer 2003, frequently coaches for Greater Boston Youth Symphony Orchestras (now BYSO) and is currently the Conductor for the Preparatory String Orchestra and coach for MetroWest Youth Symphony Orchestra in Framingham, MA.
She plays frequently with orchestras such as Boston Landmarks Orchestra, Opera Boston, Vermont Symphony Orchestra, Calflin Hill Symphony Orchestra and occasionally with Emmanuel Music Symphony by the Sea and Plymouth Philharmonic as Assistant Concertmaster. Mrs. Hima-Buli has performed under the conductors James Levine, Jamie Laredo, Gil Rose, Ronald Feldman, Martin Perlman, Isaiah Jackson, Anthony Princiotti, William Cutter, Susan Wyner, Jarry Sicko, Julian Wachner, Paul Surapine and others.
Etleva Hima-Buli published her first Violin method book "European Violin Studies" in December 2008.
After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
I just wanted to let you know, that a new track of mine is waiting for your oppinion. It's called "run the self" and its the first track after a decade of music production, that I sung myself.

Etleva, After serious & cautious consideration . . .
Your contract of friendship has been renewed for the New Year 2009!
It was a very hard decision to make. So try not to screw it up!!!
Our Wishes for You in 2009
May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts.
May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet of $100 bills. May love stick to your face like Vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May your clothes smell of success like smoking tires and may happiness slap you across the face and may your tears be that of joy. May the problems you had forget your home address! In simple words . . . May 2009 be the best year of your life!!! ~GG~ xxx
