Oi, Shope, Shope 6:23 (Comic Song from the Shopsko Region) III. Damba 10:22 THE ROYAL NETHERLANDS ARMY BAND FRANCO CESARINI, Conductor Bulgarian folk music has a long tradition and numerous typical characteristics, such as particular dissonances and complex, irregular rhythms. In Bulgarian Dances (Part II) (which can be performed together with the previously published title Bulgarian Dances) Franco Cesarini has preserved the original spirit of Bulgarian folk music, yet has imbued it with a symphonic character and brought it into the concert hall. The three different movements give us a meditative, moving folksong and a lively dance, before a distinctly symphonic part leads to a glittering finale.
