BATORU Dirk Strakhof - Double Bass Michel Schiefel - Voice Peter Ralchev - Accordion Franz Bauer - Marimba, Vibraphone Stoyan Yankoulov - Tupan, Percussion DISCOGRAPHY “Tree Of Sounds“ (Nabel / 2000) REVIEWS "BATORU - the mixture of Berlin and Bulgarian musicians. The sometimes estranged singing of Michel Schiefel perfectly matches the Balkan instruments. Those who have never experienced the tupan (played by Stoyan Yankoulov) - the Bulgarian frame drum - was not only surprised here but often had the feeling to listen to a whole orchestra. The musicians gave overwhelming energy to the audience." Carina Prange / Jazz Podium [ go Back ] [ go Home ] [ go Top] [ login media ]
