Dona Dimitru Siminica - Sounds from a bygone age - Vol. 3

Mp3 192 kbps Dona Dimitru Siminica was the man with the falsetto voice. It was a perfect instrument, never cracking, and with a gorgeous tone. His Romanian Gypsy (lautari) music was elegantly soulful and passionate, from the aching \\\"La Salul Cel Negru\\\" to the sprightly \\\"De Trei Ani Nu Dau Pe Acasa.\\\" The recordings on Sounds from a Bygone Age, Vol. 3, from the early \\\'60s, are timeless in their beauty. Siminica was a good violinist, but it was his singing that won him fame. Born in 1926 and dying in the early \\\'80s, he was an icon in the cafes and bars of Bucharest. The musicians on these recordings, some of whom have never been released outside Romania on CD before, are superb, especially accordionist Faramita Lambru. He was one of the few who could cross the divide between Gypsy and Romanian songs, and did so with aplomb. This is a remarkable album from the archives, a little slice of history that captivates. The sound is great too! The communist was high on High End... Recommended for all music lovers out there. Download, share & enjoy

Gypsy music in Romania has nothing to do with communism - in fact, some texts of it were anti-communist. And don't forget communism was imposed on Romania by the Russians/Soviets after WWII - nobody actually wanted it. Gypsy and traditional folk music (muzica lautareasca si populara) have existed long before and flow naturally from Romanian history.
