South Slavic dialects historically formed a continuum. The turbulent history of the area, particularly due to expansion of the Ottoman Empire, resulted in a patchwork of dialectal and religious differences.
John Pavkovich A beautiful rendition of the famous song "Grivna" by the Balkan Tamburitza Orchestra directed by John Pavkovich. Band members included Dave Zupkovich, Martin Kapugi, John Krilcich, and Joseph Matacic. This was likely recorded in the 1940's. The song is based on the poem "Grivna" ("Гривна"), written by famed Bosnian poet Aleksa Šantić (Алекса Шантић),⁽¹⁾ with music by renowned Serbian composer Stanislav Binički (Станислав Бинички).
The tamburitza is the most popular and most common of the national instruments of the Croatian people. It is a stringed instrument related to the Russian balalaika, the Ukrainian bandura and the Italian mandolin. The tamburitza is said to have first appeared in Bosnia, and from there it appeared in the regions of Slavonija and Backa. Learning to play the tamburitza was passed down from one generation to the next.
The tamburitza ensembles are all built around a core of stringed instruments (the tamburitza) based itself on the saz, baglama, tambur, and such from the Middle East and developed over the decades both in Eastern Europe and in America with the immigrant communities. There's quite a bit of music here, with some very nice performances sprinkled throughout.
