about

Kolo Baro originated as a composition for the Mahala Rai Banda's 2009 release "Ghetto Blasters." The melody and arrangement is emblematic of modern Romanian Romani brass styles, and serves as both an update of, and a reference to the long standing brass traditions of the Romani diaspora in the Moldavian region of Romani, and in particular, the village of Zece Prăjini. The contrasting swung and straight rhythms of this version highlight the conflicts between traditional Romanian performance, and more modern (and more profitable) "world music" performances.
