Gradina and Yabulka — Music from the Middle East & the Balkans
Gradina
Gradina is a Balkan music ensemble, having been based in the North Bay area since 2001. We sing a cappella and also some songs with instrumental accompaniment, leaning toward traditional songs and arrangements. We present “sit-down” concerts for choral listening as well as dance concerts, and are also available to teach most of the dances we present. We are honored to play with many Balkan musicians from near and far, and every concert is different, often with a different array of performers.

Yabulka
Yabulka is a Sonoma County based quartet that plays traditional Bulgarian folk music in the “Bitov” or Village style. The main melody instruments are the Gadulka (vertically-oriented violin-like instrument) and the Gaida (bagpipe with a natural goat skin) while the chords are held down by the Tambura and the drum by the Tupan. We play mostly instrumental music for dancing – and though there is limited dance space at The Lost Church, there will be some space in the back for a dance circle (or oval!).
