About Fanfara Tirana
Fanfara Tirana is an absolute novelty among Balkan brass bands. In comparison with traditional Slav brass bands this one is different and new thanks to the well articulate music language which is essentially based on a very enthralling melodic path with the support of other instruments. Melody is committed to the clarinet, sax-alto, trumpet and sax tenor expressing their stile of pure improvisation defined as "kaba" (typical of music from South Albania) and "gazel" (typical of music from Tirana and neighburing villages). These are tipical Albanian songs, full of vitality, of impossible odd times and frenetic passages of north Albania and Kosovo, in which every songs narrates a transit: life death, happiness sadness, pleasure sorrow, in a repertory whose traditional passages of wedding parties lay on charming Balkan and Oriental atmosphears. Line up: Hysni Niko Zela – voice; Fatbardh Capi, Gezim Haxhiaj – sax, clarinet; Xhemal Muraj, Gazmor Halilaj – trumpet; Agim Sako – tenor sax; Roland Shaqja – baritone sax; Mark Luca, Pellumb Xhepi, Artan Mucollari – baritone tuba; Luan Ruci – bass tuba; Kujtim Hoxha – drum; Ismail Bali – tapan, gran cassa; Mario Grassi – percussions.
