Notes

Recorded at Audio Loft Studios, Ambridge, PA, USA during Spring/Summer 1995 using 24-track analog mixer, Digital Audio Tape (D.A.T.) recording and MIDI.

A1: An instrumental tune of both the solitude and joy of life. It became famous during the early 1900s through the interpretation of Serbian violinist and musical prodigy Vlastimir Pavlovic-Carevac.
A2: A song of love and determination that has no boundaries among Serbs. A song of East and South, and the eternal veneration of Christ.
A3: A man sings about a young woman, her loveliness, her eyes, and sensual lips. He is heartbroken when he realizes that he is not the man of her heart.
A4: Played in 4/4 rhythm, it is as powerful as it is Baroque.
A5: Symbolizes the Dionysian joy of life, music and dance. The tune is played in the 7/8 rhythm, characteristic for Kosovo and Southern regions of Serbia.
A6: The story of a Serb who has traveled the world to discover many of his friends scattered around the world. When they gather, they enjoy fine wines, luscious food, beautiful women, and Serbian songs.They ask God to give them these gifts for the rest of their lives.
B1: A story of a secret love between a young woman and a man who meet on a spring.
B2: The song relates to young women from Vranje who dance the Kolo — the traditional Serbian dance — around the village fountain. All recognize that Tasha is the prettiest one. With its unusual 9/8 rhythm, it features renaissance elements.
B3: A ballad about a young man who returns to Belgrade after years of voyage, and wonders about the whereabouts of his former love.
B4: Jana is a song about a man, a young woman (Jana), and her mother. The young woman is in love with one who does not stand well in her family's judgment, and to their disappointment, the parents have promised their daughter to someone else. The song is an enjoyable blend of traditional harmony and modern beat.
B5: According to chronicles, this tune was composed upon Serbian independence from the Turks, and the final Turkish withdrawal from Serbia in the second half of the nineteenth century, after more than five centuries of foreign domination.
B6: This is a famous song sung by Serbian soldiers after their retreat to Greece upon the destruction of Serbia by Axis powers in the First World War. This song symbolizes soldiers' concern for loved ones, nostalgia, and resolve to liberate their fatherland.
B7: The richness of melody and rhythm from Eastern Serbia has been fully expressed in this lively tune.
