Vinko Globokar’s Balkan Requiem

Abstract

Globokar’s rare excursions into folklore include the two Études pour folklora of 1968 which imitate the techniques of folk musicians in Bosnia and Macedonia and Élegie balkanique of 1992 which laments the Balkan tragedy in musical and verbal terms, in effect a secular requiem.
