The track starts out with a beautiful march and ends with a fast paced circle dance called <i>"Jeftanovićevo Kolo"</i>. Richard Spottswood's catalog of Ethnic Music on Records Vol.2 lists the name of this track as <i>"Persički Turski"</i>. This recording was made in New York, in the summer of 1912.<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>F</b></span>rom the beautiful old city of Sombor, in the Bačka region of Vojvodina, northern Serbia</span>, came one of the greatest musicians of the early 20th century. Unfortunately very few people today have even heard the name Stevan Bačić-Trnda, let alone heard any of his recordings. An exceptionally talented violinist, a renowned bandleader, and an extraordinary vocalist, we are extremely fortunate to be able to hear his music today, a full century later. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>B</b></span>orn in the village of Stapar in 1870, he grew up in nearby Sombor and studied violin from an early age with some of the city's most prominent musicians. Trnda went on to play in the tamburica orchestras of some of the greatest legends of his day, gaining vast knowledge and experience along the way. Eventually gathering together a group of his own, Trnda and his orchestra started out playing regular gigs at the best establishments in Sombor. A violin virtuoso, his unique style often pushed the boundaries of traditional folk music and set him apart from other musicians of his day. He was a powerful tenor, and his vocal style fit so perfectly with his playing that it was often hard to tell where one began and the other ended. As a band leader, Trnda's interpretations of the old songs were powerful, full of emotion, and whether elaborate or simple, they were always uniquely his own. In the first decade of the 20th century, Stevan Bačić-Trnda and his band were in real demand and played engagements all over Vojvodina, even touring Bosnia, in the process spreading the music that was popular back home. He also brought back many beautiful old Bosnian songs and melodies, <i>sevdalinke</i>, and even Serbian folk songs that were popular in Bosnia but hadn't been heard back home for generations. In the years before the First World War, Trnda and his orchestra traveled Europe and made an unknown number of recordings for the Gramophone Co., Beka, and others. Trnda was even invited to Chicago in 1928 along with a group of musicians from his <br />

In 1930, Trnda traveled back to Vienna, Austria, to make what would be his last recordings. He was accompanied by another famous Sombor musician, <i>gajdaš</i> (bagpiper) Kosta Šarčanski-Koca. Between the 18th and 19th of September Stevan Bačić-Trnda, and his now smaller six piece tamburica orchestra, laid down 26 tracks of an amazingly wide variety, from old folk songs, to Bosnian <i>sevdalinke</i>, to <i>starogradske pesme</i> (old city songs). He also recorded a number of songs by contemporary composers like Marko Nešić, Mita Gruijć, and Stanislav Binićki. Trnda died just five years later, in 1935, in his hometown of Sombor.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>U</b></span>nfortunately, like so many Serbian artists who recorded before WWII, Stevan Bačić-Trnda's records are now few and far between. I was fortunate that my great-grandfather kept some of his records and was careful to preserve them. I've been able to find others along the way as well. The records I've posted below are some of my favorites. The orchestra sounds smaller than was usual for Trnda during this time period before WWI. The arrangements aren't as complicated and there's an intimate feel to them, somewhat more improvisational than some of his other early recordings. I think these four tracks are good examples of his unique and personal take on the old folk songs. Unfortunately I have yet to find anything from his 1930 Vienna sessions.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>T</b></span>hank you to my good friend Petar Stojkov who was so kind and helpful in providing me with historical information about Stevan Bačić-Trnda. He grew up in Sombor too, just down the street from the famous <i>kafana </i>"Ratar" where Trnda's orchestra entertained regularly at the turn of the century. Petar's great-grandmother even worked there as a chef in those days. Unfortunately, the "Ratar" was demolished some 50 years ago.</div>

The first track features Nick Brozovich singing a gutsy rendition of<i> "Poslušaću staru majku",</i> a beautiful old song composed by another legendary tamburaš, Marko Nešić. Side B is a great version of an old tune from southern Serbia, <i>"Zašto, Sike, zašto"</i>. Kolesar's version seems to be inspired by Serbian tenor Mijat Mijatović's famous recording of the song made in the late 1920's.<br />

It's very possible that this band went by another name, but the Victor Record Co. lists them here simply as <i>"Srpski Muški Kvintet"</i> (Serbian Male Quintet) or <i>"Srpski Tamburaški Kvintet"</i> (Serbian Tamburica Quintet). Some of the greatest tamburaši of the early 20th century can be heard on these recordings. Vaso Bukvić and Zdravko Jezdimir were founding members of the original Banat Tamburica Orchestra of Elizabeth, New Jersey (est.1912). They also went on to play in the "Yugoslavia" Tamburaško Društvo of Indiana Harbor, IN, together with another member of this band, Ćira Kozarov. The director of the "Srpski Muški Kvintet" was another legendary tamburaš, Sandor Huszar, an extremely talented musician, composer, and bandleader, he is probably most famous for the many recordings he made with Ilija Mišković in the 1920's. Rounding out this tamburitza quintet was bass vocalist B.V. Eliss.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">T</span></b>his group of musicians recorded at least fourteen individual songs or instrumentals for the Victor company as the <i>"Srpski Muški Kvintet" </i>between<i> </i>May and August of 1917. Unfortunately, it seems that only eight recordings were ever released. I've posted four of these tracks below.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">T</span></b>he first record is a great instrumental medley of Serbian and Croatian songs and dances (side A is mostly songs, and side B is mostly dances). The second record starts with an upbeat old patriotic tune, "<i>Napred Stupaj</i>", also known as<i> "Srbijanci i Bosanci"</i>, or <i>"Kralja Petra Pesma"</i>. The flip side is a nice rendition of the popular old song <i>"Oj devojko! Oj!"</i>, better known as <i>"Ti si rajski cvet"</i>, featuring lead vocals by Ćira Kozarov. <br />

When he arrived here from Yugoslavia in the late 1930's to perform at the Worlds Fair he was already a well established and extremely popular singer and musician. He performed in Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia and even had his own radio show in Belgrade, which only increased his popularity and landed him gigs all over Europe. Upon his arrival in America Edo was an instant sensation. His style was something new and fresh and marked a real turning point in the music. He played with all the great tamburitza musicians of the time and no doubt was a huge inspiration to all of them. His career lasted for decades and he recorded countless 78 rpms, 45's, and LP's with his own orchestras as well as many others. There's a nice biography of Edo Ljubić in English <a href="http://www.tamburitza.org/TAA/bios/lubich.html">here</a>; and one in Croatian <a href="http://www.barikada.com/vremeplov/kao_nekad_u_8/2004-08-31_ljubic_edo_-_biografija.php">here</a>.<br />

<span style="font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">T</span></span>hese recordings of Edo Ljubić with the Kapugi Brothers Tamburitza Orchestra are a great example of his collaboration with America's premier tamburaši. The arrangements for these four tracks are all by Edo. The first record features a beautiful old Bosnian song, <span style="font-style: italic;">"U Stambulu na Bosforu"</span>, one of his most famous recordings. The second record features Edo singing two famous old numbers. The first<span style="font-style: italic;">, "Neven Kolo"</span>, a dance composed by legendary Serbian band leader, tamburaš, and composer Marko Nešić of Novi Sad. The second is <span style="font-style: italic;">"Kad sam bio mlađan lovac ja", </span>a famous song which is usually attributed to composer Marko Nešić, but which was in fact composed by Alojz Lesjak, a conductor from Šid and Vukovar.¹<br />

The works of renowned Serbian composer and tamburitza musician Marko Nešić seem to make up a significant part of Mimika's discography, and this track, <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Ej gledaj muže</span> <span style="font-size: 85%;">(<span style="font-style: italic;">Ej vidiš muže kakvo mi je lice</span>),</span> is a great example. The free, improvisational style of this performance is typical of his soulful, heartfelt interpretations of Nešić's compositions.<br />

The Bukvić brothers, Vaso and Mirko, were part of the original <span style="font-style: italic;">Banat Tamburitza Orchestra</span> founded by Zdravko Jezdimir in 1912. Also in 1912, the amazing primaš and tenor Vlado Marjanović was making his famous recordings with Drago Ilkić for the Columbia recording studios. In 1917 Ćira Kozarov joined Vaso Bukvich and Zdravko Jezdimir to<span style="font-style: italic;"> </span>make a number of recordings for RCA-Victor with the <span style="font-style: italic;">Srpski</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">muški kvintet</span><span style="font-style: italic;">, </span>a renowned tamburitza orchestra<span style="font-style: italic;"> </span>directed by Sandor Huszar. Some of these incredibly talented musicians would go on to form this group, <span style="font-style: italic;">The Yugoslavia Tamburaško Društvo</span>, in the early 1920's.<br />
