This is great: Balkan prog-fusion (in Christmas TV schedules)...

Colin H's picture

I've no idea who these people are, but a whole concert of their Balkan-esque fusion fabulosity - Romanian/Bulgarian-sounding dance tunes along with tunes by Mozart, Erik Satie and Debussy - has just appeared on youtube.

I was - but of course - first attracted by this terrific cover of the Mahavishnu Orchestra's 'Meeting Of The Spirits/You Know, You Know', but I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of the set. The second tune (below) is great fun - a trad sounding Balkan tune with scat vocals and blistering guitar.

Imagine, this was apparently broadcast at Christmas last year and clearly it is a large concert hall full of people. Fusion never died: seemingly, it just bought a holiday home in Transylvania and never bothered coming back...
