Teodora Arsenovic

The Belgrade kafanas of the 1920's and 30's must have been wonderful to experience. Serbia's greatest vocalists and orchestras were performing at that time. The gypsy groups, which were the usual accompaniment to the singers, were some of the best in the world. Unfortunately many of the recordings made during this time are now lost forever.

Here's a record by Teodora Arsenovic accompanied by one of those great gypsy orchestras.

Hvalila se žuta dunja
Oj mladosti tužni dani
