Romania boasts an endless wealth of folk music and culture. While the music of the north still sounds familiar to West-European ears, it becomes gradually faster and fierier towards the south. The six movements of Romanian Dances consist of various folk songs collected and arranged by the composer, and represent a cross section of styles from dances with stomping and drumming to dances associated with prayer. Movement 1 - Meleaguri mistice (Mystic Landscape) incorporates a doina (prayer) and a bocet (an elegy, usually sung by women). Dur: 8:45 Romanian Dances is also available in the following editions: 44007484 Romanian Dances (Complete) ($369.00) 44007480 Suite from Romanian Dances (Movements 2-5: Batuta 1; Colinda; Jocuri; Apsanescu - $199.00) 44007482 Finale from Romanian Dances (Movement 6: Batuta 2 - $99.00)
