Esma Redzepova ~ Gypsy Carpet ~ CD
A superstar throughout Eastern Europe and the Balkans, Redzepova was the grand dame of the recent movie Gypsy Caravan. Her voice is unique, powerful, by turns joyous and heart-rending.... On this latest recording, she sings about the longings and the fate of Gipsy women. She is accompanied by a tight, sympathetic Gipsy band, directed by her husband Simeon Atanasov, consisting of accordion, violin, clarinet, trumpet, guitar, double bass, keyboard, and percussion.
