Belo Platno - Serbian Traditional Music

I love this music.

Music Characteristics: The main characteristics of the music of Belo Platno are the Balkan modal style, striking female voices and the playing of authentic traditional instruments.

The modal style consists of singing and playing according to modes*.

The musical arrangements for group performances are based on field and other sound recordings. The songs are sung in local slavic dialects.

White Linen is a frequent motive in Serbian folk songs.

As a symbol of purity, white linen follows a man through life: at birth, he is swaddled in it; at his baptism – wrapped in it; at his wedding – bound by it; 

as a wedding guest – presented with it; during his life he wears it, and is finally shrouded in it.

There is particularly a large number of songs in which a young girl bleaches linen or weaves it on a loom. 

The symbolism of whiteness is multiple and refers not only to looks (face, hands, breasts) but to qualities as well (chastity, gentleness, purity).

Brasserie Bread - Sydney
Brasserie Bread is one of the top leaders in sourdough bakery in Australia. The breads made here are sold to some of the finest restaurants in Sydney.
If you love meat served with a side of meat, than this unobtrusive restaurant is for you. Zorro's is run by a Serbian man and his wife and all the Balkan food is authentic and traditional. The portions are more than generous. Even the salads with cheeses or the side dishes offer something really special.
