Divanhana – Ćilim

Our dear friends and CPL-Musik stun us again with a popping single!  Some info from the band’s Bandcamp site:

Divanhana is a Bosnian sevdah band which performs traditional music in new arrangements created under the influence of jazzpop and the 20th century classical music. Divanhana’s intention is to cherish and present the urban traditional music not only from Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also the traditional music from the whole Balkan region, with a particular accent to Sevdalinka.

The music is far more energetic, though less sultry, than a lot of Sevdalinka I’ve heard previously, but it’s a joyful listen.

You can pick up the single from the CPL-Musik website, or you can stream via Spotify or Qobuz (which I prefer far more).  The track is part of the album, Zavrzlama, which you can read about here, courtesy of World Music Central.
