ZEGAR ZIVI
Zegar Zivi

Cloud Valley CV3008

Released February 2008


It might come as a surprise that this extraordinary music is from Europe. Powerful acapella group vocals, often using the wild beating-against-drone technique of groktenje, diple playing, goat-calling and church-bell ringing from a group of amazingly resilient Serbian singers who’ve moved back to their village of Zegar in the rocky hill-country of Dalmatia in Croatia – a region war-shattered in the 1990s and still depopulated, but beautiful and now peaceful - to rebuild their homes and pick up the threads of their lives and rich musical traditions. The album’s title, and the group’s name, means “Zegar Lives”.

 

All the tracks were recorded in Zegar in May 2007, produced by Andrew Cronshaw in collaboration with Svetlana Spajic.


The digipak contains a 60 page booklet with many photos and extensive notes in English and Serbo-Croat about the people, the place and their music.

 

See www.cloudvalley.com for more information, including a listing of the CD's 22 tracks.
