{"product_id":"traditional-songs-and-music-of-eno-kozo-9781527505322","title":"Traditional Songs and Music of the Korçë Region of Albania","description":"This book is concerned with the repertory of traditional urban song and music of the Korçë area in general and more specifically the karakteristike (characteristic) or â ~distinctiveâ (TM) song associated with Korçë city, Albania. The first half of the 20th century marked the climax of an evolution which started in the mid-19th century with the oral tradition of urban song in Korçë. While the translation of â ~Kënga Karakteristike Korçareâ (TM) into â ~Korçare Distinctive Songâ (TM) seems to be an odd name for a genre, it is, however, a translation as close as possible to the original Albanian, denoting the characteristic songs of Korçë. The term â ~characteristicâ (TM) implies peculiar or specific songs, different not only from the traditional urban song of Korçë, but also from any kind of song, whether folk, popular, traditional urban or art, composed and performed among the Korçë people. The book also introduces the Korçare urban song and urban lyric song, as well as the Saze music, which were introduced during the Ottoman domination of the Balkans.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eno Koço\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1527505324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781527505322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge Scholars Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/05\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.70w x 0.70d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eno Koço","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48518798016767,"sku":"9781527505322","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ce68ab36-b560-4e34-ab3e-97591e02d39d.jpg?v=1778735688","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/traditional-songs-and-music-of-eno-kozo-9781527505322","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
